    I have two plants currently under a single 85w warm CFL.
    Both are coming along nicely, although the younger plant seems to be growing faster, possibly cause I've been LSTing it a fair amount.
    Here are pics of the younger plant, which is about 4 weeks old.

    Am I doing OK?

    lookin good. Maybe want to switch to a bigger pot here in the near future, but other than that they look happy and healthy. Keep up the good work.

    Nirvanas' Papaya is known for being a fast starter, I also heard that the high is mind blowing :smoking:. I have papaya seeds that I got from Gypsy Nirvana but I haven't grown them yet. I will be waiting until I have a really good grow cab to get the best out of them ;) ...

    here's my other plant which is actually a week older, believe it or not.

    However I've just started to LST her a lot more and I hope she'll bulk up in the next week, after which I intend to flower as I have a small space and want to have finished by Christmas time. Is this a good idea?

    That depends on what you find more important :

    a. Be ready for Christmas.
    b. Have a descent yield.

    Meaning, I'm worried you're cutting the vegging/flowering phases short on time and power.
    I personally do 3 full months of vegging and then 2 months of flowering.
    I think 'normally' speaking, hydro growers with MH can do flowering at 5/6 weeks old.
    Not soil grows with low power CFL....
    But then again, it's what YOU find important!:wave:

    I'd love to veg for months on end, but I'm growing in the eaves in my room (the attic) which are damn small to begin with, but also mean I have to be very careful around times when the family need to remove other things from the eaves (which is were we keep a lot of junk).

    As CFL power goes, I don't have the cash to bulk it up right now, but at the minute I have an 11w, 20w and 85w bulb, so they're getting an alright amount of light. I will take pics of the space soon so you know what I'm dealing with.

    safe.
