Check out my baby- A month and a week
Her name is Margarita. I'm using a bubbler and a 150W CFL with a reflector thing. Tempature is 79.6 degrees farenheit. Still can't decide when to switch her over to 12/12. At the nodes, do those sprigs look like preflowers? Any suggestions, comments or questions? Would greatly appreciate others input :D

i Can't say with any certainty that those are pre flowers or not.
They do look like pods but often they are just new grow shoots.
I say you have some more vegging to do before flowering...
Perhaps you moved the light for the picture...but if not....the light needs to be brought down much closer to her.
Looks good. :)

they look like they are leanin'...are you turn them so the fan will blow them back up?

Shes not leaning per sey, but her crown is growing towards the light.
Reaching, begging for more :)

on second look, I see that H
Keep the light close and be patient...the biggest factor mentally in growing is patience,
It will always take longer than you think, enjoy...oh and you can never have too much light!

Thanks for the input, i went ahead and lowered the light closer, about an inch away from her. Maybe if i tied her towards the fan id fix that lil lean and get a higher yield or potency?

Don't you dare tie her unless she is falling down. Put that fan all over her and thicken that stalk. If you tie her she will not have as thick a stem because she doesn't have to support her own weight and then you'll have a spindly ass plant.

no, just rotate them if possible or move your fan...I did not mean to imply that there was anything wrong with her, just some observations...they look great, let'em grow as they may

Rotating her sounds like a good idea, I think i'll rotate the container clockwise daily so that everyday it has a new angle from the fan.
Also, I have a MH lightbulb, yet no ballast, don't i need a special ballast to power this bulb?

mh ballast matching wattage of bulb...just buy a kit for that bulb...ebay around $50
you don't need the reflector.(a common misconception is that you need to buy this big reflector,DON'T) If you build your grow area the ceiling will be a reflective white or mylar and without reflector light bounces all over...really lights up the place...also, 10-12f degrees cooler...
