smoking and usage

Here's everything in a nut shell.
Germinated to a 3/4" sprout before I found it in the paper towel.
Planted in a really small pot with MG & perlite.
Started it on one little 24w cfl with a fan on my dresser, then another cfl...& so on.
Put it in a bigger pot with more MG in a grow cab with a 400w hps 18/6......."HOT"
It grew fine in the 100deg cabinet, but I moved it in a shed outside under a 1000w hps, all the extra fans & intake & exhaust vents didnt do anything but make up the difference in the 400w & 1000w bulb, still 100degs.
I removed the 1000w ballast & installed the 400w, it was just the one plant at the time, summer heat came on quick, so I was pretty much looking at 100degs again, I continued to let it veg for 5 weeks.
I put into 12/12, I didnt see any bud development for over a month, then you guys told me it was the friggin heat.
I installed a a/c unit, she started to bud up pretty good when I got the temp down to 84, but most likely too late for a good harvest.
This is week 6 on 12/12 - 42 days, 77 total.
I sure wish I could have controlled that temp problem way sooner, but its my first grow so its all good.
Oh, I started feeding it Foxfarm Bigbloom & Tiger bloom at or around the 5th week.
All in all I'm happy as shit, & thanks for all the help.

Thanks, it was some pretty good bagseed, only found about 4 seeds in 2oz.

Yeah, it was hot at first, esp with that 1000w bulb, now I have an a/c window unit, & a 400w bulb, 84degs in there now with the a/c on the lowest setting, I'll be able to expand now & bring back the 1000w.
