Return the cfl you bought, and buy a 400w HPS with a digital dimmable ballast. With anything less you are really wasting your time, and power. If 400 watts is too much, simply dim down to 50% or 75% with the turn of a knob. Return that light back to the hydro store while you still can, and save your money for something useful.

Thank you! The guy said I would need to switch to a 400w eventually... I wish he would have just told me about the dimmable balast then... oh well, we have to lear somehow, I guess that's why I am here.

Check out my MMMP approved strains thread. Its a list of strains ive tryed indoors and out and got the best feedback from. be carful with south african kwazulu it can be tricky and it grows very tall.
OK thanks I will check it out. Yea I am definitly not looking for anything really tall indoors... It sucks in michgan that you can't have a caregiver if you grow, I figure it is going to take me about six months from now before any of my stuff is ready....by the time I get the seeds and go through the whole process....

I guess I missed whether you are legal or not, I'm assuming you are.. If not I would chop that thing and trash it because it's not really worth the risk.

You need better lighting. even if it is some 23w cfl bulbs.

Personally I would upgrade my lights any way possible.. You can grow some dank with CFL's.. You just have to spread them around the plant and keep them CLOSE.. This plant though, I don't think you're going to get anything spectacular from it and would be better off using the time it has left to start new ones and get upgrading.

Yes, I am legal, I am going to see if I can exchange my light... I am keeping this plant just to see what happens until I get my seeds that I ordered.
