anyway, here are some pics of vegetative growth during my battle with root-rot. note the short internodes brought about i'm sure because i used 4x30wtt 6500K CFL's and 1x40wtt 2700K CFL for lighting, the growth i've gotten off these CFL's has been amazing.
and i'm using cfl's rather than hid's because i can add 40wtts at a time for under ten bucks as opposed to having to buy an hid for 300.00. also, lol, before you suggest it, i plan on reversing my light spectrum for flowering
