Here's some pics...my first grow, using CFL's on some midgrade bagseed. About 4 weeks flowering.

Thanks a lot! They're both about 2 feet tall, so any idea of what kind of harvest range I'm looking at? I'm hoping to get an ounce each at least. I wonder how they'll fill out. I have no idea what to expect, so if anyone how there can give me an idea of what to expect next it would be greatly appreciated.

how many cfls do you have?, i would get more for side lighting, it will get light to all of the lower bud sites and significently increase your yeild

I have 11 23 watt 2700K CFLs, and a 42 watt 2700K CFL. The 42 watt is in a desk lamp and it aimed at the bottom of the plants.

Thanks everyone. If anyone is interested I'll continue to post pics every few days in case anyone would like to see. I'm comparing my grow to Spittn4Cash's, he's got a great grow journal, so if anyone out there has some mids under CFL's (broke as a joke method), keep up with his and mine and we'll see how this turns out. Even still today, I don't understand how all these damn hairs turns into big fat buds. If anyone has a set of pics that shots the transformations of hairs to buds, please show me. All I see at my budspots are little tiny crystalized (or just started) leaves and tons of white hairs that aere slowly turning yellow. Haha, how damn lucky do I have to be to attempt to sprout two seeds and end up getting two females....niiiice (like Borat)....haha

Well, they're getting closer to what resembles what you smoke. I need to do some more research on harvesting and the final crucial weeks. I'm just not seeing how all these damn hairs turn into juicy buds. I see a little more "bud" i guess but mainly just tons and tons of white hairs. Do the numbers of hairs have any indication on what to expect to get bud-wise? Thanks for the comments...

Oh yea...just spotted a couple of red hairs here and there...I'm guessing they're just getting older...ah, how cool would it be to have the hairs stay white...doubtful with this midgrade... I wonder if the bud I get will be better or worse than its parents...only time will tell, but I guess I'm taking better care of these than commercial mids...

Those are beautiful brother. Get yourself a little magnifier or jewlers loop and judge maturity from the color and texture of the trichromes on the buds. Search the forums.
