Two months from seed to harvest? No, not possible with CFLs. Not possible with any other lights either.Quote:

Gainesville speaks the truth :thumbsup: Not happening in 2 mos. from seed , even w/ some B/S auto flower - rudderail - lo/rider crap and 1000w H.I.Ds .

eh..it may be possible. a healthy indica can flower in 6-7 weeks.
2months= 61days= just under 9 weeks
9-7week flowering= 2weeks
if seeds are soaked, theyll break surface within days and become sufficient within a week
2-1=1
that leaves 1 week of vegetative growth before launching plants into early flowering. this is doable (like an extreme sog method), but will yield very little per plant
ghetto: if you have 5-10 seeds your willing to blow for minimal return, go for it. otherwise, your gonna need to get a few extra weeks in there to competently veg it to a managable size
Even if you tried to flower your plant when it was one week old, it would not flower. A plant will not flower until it is ready, and that is weeks into vegetative growth. So unless you find a four-week flowering strain, no.Quote:

I am no novice gardener. Let me put it this way, if the plant were growing outdoors, in the early spring or late summer, it would have 12/12 or close from its sprout stage on. This is the fastest flowering method possible, also it is a natural way that some plants grow outdoors already. Some strands do better with a longer light period, but they will still flower much quicker w/o a 24 veg cycle at all. I usually veg for a week, bend, trim, and shape my plants to fit the desired growspace (btw: I only use compact flourescents too) then I flower them. Some start wiithin a week, others take about a month, but I also use random seeds so some end up being males, which I then remove. I have one indica strain that hasn't been planted for even a month yet, and it already has 8 flowers budding:smokin:Quote:

Oh, and another tip for all us gardeners on a budget, instead of mylar, grab some of that shiny plastic gift-wrap they make now. The inside is almost the same as mylar and way, way cheaper. It's just as reflective.:thumbsup:
