But since this was my experiment plant I'm gonna try to be serious with the next few if I come across some females. Anything can help! I'm not using anything special. I'm using CFL soft white and natural white bulbs with reflectors. All are 2700k or 3500k with 1600 or more lumens which I was told that's what plants depend on the lumens. I have pictures of my plant if anyone wants to see what it looked like let me know.
hi yes some pics would be great.
the best light cycle imho is 18/6 then down to 12/12 once shes strong and big enough to flower.
there could be loads of reasons why she isnt growing..ph problems,over watering,no co2 etc etc etc
