high everyone
![]() I am a medical cannabis user and I have one plant I started from seed outside it has done very very well and i live in a area where it is starting to get cold outside so I went and bought one soft white CFL(27 watt and 1700 lumens) and put my plant in the closet recently after 6 weeks or less outside(i dont remember cuz im really medicated at the moment ) its two feet tall and has 9 sets of branches.I started budding her and she is doing quite well under the one CFL. Is that CFL Enough? Right now I have it on a 12 / 12 light cycle should i switch to 18/6 to speed up the budding??? THIS IS MY FIRST FULL GROW.

Keep it on 12/12 but that isn't even close to enough light. You need to pronto get at least 200w actual of cfls on a plant that size and 300w would be better. Make them mostly 2700 with some 6500.

Looks fine now after having grown outside, but if you keep it under such low light for long you'll see what I mean.

Remember, it's not so much how many bulbs you have or even their wattage...it's how well that light penetrates the canopy of leaves. Look into trying to reflect and reclaim as much of that light spilling out to the side as possible so that the lower buds get some.
