lookin good dude. the stalks look wide, how wide is that stalk in the 2nd picture? good job man. peace
 
The second pic is of my female that just showed. The stalk is pretty thick but it looks a lot thicker in that pic cause i zoomed in.
 
and oh yeah....i completely changed the set-up...i got the emergency blankets, 4 cfls and a 70 watt hps to supplement them..using distilled water
 
yeah man, pics would be great, I want to see how the emergency blankets work out! Nice looking plants!
 
Hey Blow I saw you said you were thinking about getting more lightsand thought I might give you a suggestion. There's a website called lightbulbdepot.com that has 85 watt CFL's that produce 4250 lumens and come in 2700k and 6400k and cost $29 a piece. A little more expensive than the ones you purchased but way worth it. They are called super spirals and are a little larger than the ones you have but still fit in a regular socket. I currently have two and am going back for more. Give 'em a look. Chunk... Lighting fixtures, gu10 halogen, light bulb, lamp, fluorescent, incandescent, metal halide from Light Bulb Depot.
 
just a few more pics
tell me what you think
comments welcome

lookin good man, believe it or not but with using cfl's the mylar reflection is a huge deal. good job man.
 
yeah its really helps...thats a small 70 watt hps at the top and 4 23 watt cfls on the sides...the plant is starting to show a lot of white hairs...i don't know if you can see them that good in the pictures though...and the little one is starting to get some hairs also...2 out of 6 plants female is good enough for me for just some bagseed. Its been flowering for about 4 weeks now i believe i haven't really been keeping up.
 
today was the first day i actually seen some bud! nothing special but it would make anybody happy i'll put up some more pics tomorrow
