    my thought was you read it but have you tryed it, i'd read bout thing that don't work and tryed it on my last plant it worked great got bout 5 grams from a small ass plant you should give the halogen a try see how it works for you and your box, to be honest i was going to try that, i have a friend who has a couple halogen lights he is gonna give me or sale me, i'm gonna end up building a box around thoes two lights

    this is one of the strains i wanted to grow in a micro/box set up! but i chose kushberry and she's treating me well. Oh and a helpful tip, the CFL bulbs you're growing with expel most of their light energy from the sides, your set-up would benefit if you rigged the lights horizontally. : )

    :edit: sorry! did not see that was already mentioned-^

    Your plant looks pretty much on track from what mine looked like. Just wait until they hit day 13. Even though it's just veg, they start smelling super sweet.

    Update:

    It doesnt look as droopy as it looks in the picture but it is a bit droopy over watering?

    Definitely over watering. In a bucket that big, wait at least four or five days before you water it next. Let the roots stretch down. My ladies started their best growth when I kept the bottle away from them for a little bit.
