They produce over a 1000 lumens a piece so a few of em would do the trick for one plant in a smaller space.
6 weeks of flowering and still no hairs or bud! HELP ME!!!

Now I gotcha, that makes sense! THe plant really does not recognize the difference between cycles and just keeps growing!

The light he is using is only strong enough to produce enough energy in the plant to veg. IT requires much more lumens to produce enough energy to flower properly.

well, I am sure now that the light leak is fixed, and especially if I put 2 more grow lights on it then I should be fine ehh?

From the moment the light comes on at night, 24 hours later when it comes on again, its average about 2 inches taller.

It will make a pretty good difference. Just remember 2000 lumens per sq ft per plant for optimum growth. Also the size of your pot is a major factor in yield also.

To the Op,
you can grow some buds with cfl's
these grows are norm in smaller areas than yours as heat not an issue and light coverage over a smaller area is easy to achieve over shorter plants , your tall plant in a larger area will struggle even if 2 more cfl's added , sorry to bring you this update , but it really needs saying , you could grow on , produce some bud , and use it as a learning curve whilst you research more and aquire some better lighting ,
just a thought, good luck.....

its in a 10' pot, I originally intended it to be no taller than 3 ft. I know that means less yeild, but bro, I cant have a tree growing in my closet lol.

Also if you have been in 12/12 for 6 weeks and god knows how many vegative weeks , growing at 2 inches per night,
Do you realise how tall this would make your plant ?
My guess is you have not been in 12/12 for 6 weeks and you are just a bit eager ,
the extensive 2 inches per night you are getting is stretch as your plant recently has been switched and is stretching to the low power light,
i say how it is , no insults , like i suggested, learning curve,

I know I was reading threw to see if anyone will tell him to go with a warmer light, that's a damn cool spectrum he's rocking right now not to menchen far from the lady and weak lumen wise. Go to a more orange hue of light for flower, the HPS systems are pretty damn orange what you're currently using is for veg and cloning etc..
