are they heat stress or what?
plz help

The foil will trap and radiate heat back to the plant. Ditch the foil, or use it to make a hood for the light(s).

CFL's effective range means reflected light isn't helping enough to justify cramped quarters. A circulating fan blowing fresh air on her would help with growth and strength.

More CFL's, no sunlight. The spectrum changes can confuse a lady.

Going to need a flower cycle nutrient low in nitrogen.

Did you get the perlite? In a humid location like Panama, you'll want more perlite in the soil anyway.

how i know when it start to flower?? or i should use the nutrients right away?
thanks

is this better??

from the light schedule you provided, you only have it on 12 hours of light already? it's a little early to be flowering, try and up that schedule to 18 hours of light so the plant can vegetate.

what kind of lighting are you planning on using for flowering? you'll need to be very careful it gets no light during its 12 hours of darkness at that time, and you'll need at least a few extra cfl's to be sure you're getting all the light you need.

hey fad...with seeds it is better to start with 12 hours increasing slowly over time just as in nature going to 18 hours to fast or starting on light schedule of 18 hours or more can result in higher frequency of males...with only one seed going i would let mother nature dictate the lighting schedule and your chances of having a girl greatly increase....check the link on my bottom sig...its a page from Jorges book on getting more girls from seeds!:thumbsup:

good advice the rest of the way through! :hippy:

It will flower with light cycles of 12 hours on / 12 hours off. When to flower is up to you. It will generally triple in size during flowering.

The larger the plant, the more light it will need.

Many things you need to consider here. Best advice would be to let it veg (16 hours of light per day or more) for another month, maybe 2 months. A plant will show that it is mature and ready for flowering when you see pre-flowers (you can find examples of pre-flowers with a simple google search).

You can also flower before this, but your yield will not be as much (the longer you veg, the bigger the plant, the more yield). However, without enough lighting, vegging for longer will not give you dense, thick, high-yielding buds.

Have you thought about outdoor growing?

i had but the only place that have its the balcony of my apartment. thats why i decided to go with Cfl or should y use the sunlight? the problem is that not all day long it gets direct sunlight.
thats my real question its better to use 2 * 120w cfl or sunlight?
thanks
