WOW!! what an improvement good job banna keep up the good work :hump:
Thanks tubes!! They made some amazing progress over the weekend, getting bushy!! :mrgreen: When should I be able to tell the sex of the plants? I was reading Tek's grow journal, and he said he was able to tell in 2-3 weeks! :shock: Is that unusually quick? When should I start thinking of switching to a 16/8 light schedule?

To find out the sex early...look up cloning for sex.
They should be on 18/6-24/24 the entire time during veg!
12/12 i suggest during flower.

I'm happy to say that the plants are growing like champs! They're even bigger than when I checked on them this morning! Ooh, and the closet is starting to smell like sweet sweet bud now :) The best part of waking up!!

Thanks man! I guess I can wait until they're a little older before I check out the sex. I can just see things getting cramped up in the Aerogarden fast, and I'm eager to get rid of ze males!

Thanks man!! Time to celebrate! bongsmilie I pushed 4 of the CFLs away to take the picture, got 5 going right now. How many do you think I'll need in total once they start crankin? Will I need as many lights when I flower?

Well...you need 10000 lumens during flower.
note:lumens do not add.
So yeah you should be good for now,but come time to flower youll need more cfl's....as many as you can fit that will benefit your ladies.!

I just ran out and got a 400W high pressure sodium bulb from Home Depot, but they only had outdoor fixtures. Does anyone know a regular store that sells ballasts or indoor HPS lamps/fixtures? Can you use a HPS bulb during the veg state?

Thanks man, I'm pumped!! It was on sale for 20 bucks!
HPS is going to take that grow to the next level! I'd stick with the CFL's during veg and switch to HPS in bloom. One thing to keep in mind with the AG is you want to keep them small. I started to flower after my plant got to about 8" and she nearly tripled in size. I was just going to say that if you get more CFLs be sure to get some in the red spectrum but since you got the HPS all bets are off. :bigjoint:
