Hey guys,
this is my first grow, I started it on a joke but here I am There are 7 plants left out of 10 but they are doing it well I guess. The seeds I ordered are AK48 from the nirvana shop. Well I just found out this forum and my opinion is that it's a big fun here ) I could use some advices like are the ladies ready for 12/12 or I need to wait )

well I just ordered 1 400W HPS and 1 400W MH atleast for the flowering , but right now I am using CFLs and there are 2 little fans there the PH stuffs and some nutrients that a friend gave me. Nothing special at all, but next time I will be a lot more prepared

as far as 12/12 goes they are ready but its up to how much vertical space you have just know that they will stretch roughly 2-3 times there size when you flip the lights so dont get into the sitiuation of waiting to long to flip your light schedule and not have enough room

Thanks mate I really can't wait to see how the buds are starting to appear I am really excited about it and about the AK48 seeds from nirvana - they arrived on time and all 10 germinated, but 3 died and 7 left

Yeah, you have great node spacing, nice color and a nice height. You are going to be very happy with your grow and your harvest. Happy smoking!

Ok, here is one more question Is there any possibility to damage my plants if I add 400W HPS or MH for the veg period, considering the fact that from germination till now I used only CFLs ^^

Shouldn't harm them at all. Just remember you can't keep HID lighting as close as cfl, and monitor your temps.

Great lookin plants.

You are going to see much better growth by adding a 400w MH/HPS to your grow room. Definitely do it.

Should I use them and will they do their job (bigger buds)

This might help as far as where to keep your light. I'd say 400 watt would be a low-medium wattage light.

Actually just check this link out. Scroll about half way down for some good lighting info. actually looks like 400 watt would be a high medium maybe.
