Does this look good?

[Fugitive]

A Friend gave me this about 1½ months ago, I put it under 400 W Growlux hps 5 75 W cfl and 1 Fluorecent tube 150 W, and it started growing like crazy!
My friend had it in his window for 3 - 4 months.. he and his friends were just sitting and smoking ciggaretes and there was no ventelation!
Any advice?

Yar! it looks about ready to smoke...besides that.. with your setup and lighting you're kinda wasting your time.. get some seeds and start a new batch

my advice? flush it...and harvest in 4 days

Do this....

Move the lights that you have lighting only the stem on the bottom moved higher to the main bud level.

YOu are lighting stem and there is nothing down there to light.

Surround the main kola with as much light as you can. She still has some swelling she can do for ya and may even get you another few joints outta her.

You have the right idea....just get those lights right neat the flower kola and keep a fan on her. Its ok if some of the leaf tips get burned...you are concerned now all about that KOLA.

Fuck everything else...not enuff foilage there to waste the light. Dont remove the leaves down there, just forget them. Get that Kola some shine

just keep her growing and she'll pay you back.

Sorry but I am now limiting my assistance to only those that I choose. I no longer feel obligated to speak

I think you can handle this one..

[Fugitive]

I know it's stretchy.. but it stood in a window still for 3 months or more.. I'm not exactly sure how long.. so I hope I can rectify the damege by putting it under light, fan, and warmth..!

your answer sir -

In a fluorescent lighting system, the ballast regulates the current to the lamps and provides sufficient voltage to start the lamps. Without a ballast to limit its current, a fluorescent lamp connected directly to a high voltage power source would rapidly and uncontrollably increase its current draw. Within a second the lamp would overheat and burn out. During lamp starting, the ballast must briefly supply high voltage to establish an arc between the two lamp electrodes. Once the arc is established, the ballast quickly reduces the voltage and regulates the electric current to produce a steady light output.


and .....

NOW you KNOW
