Even my cephalotus is producing a bud right now! If you remember, several
months ago I accidentally gave all my cp's 24 hours of 400 watt metal halide
light. Right now, not only is my cephalotus about to flower, but it also has
produce the two largest traps I've ever seen on it. It is currently
receiving fifteen hours of the same light. The humidity is 55-60% during the
day and around 70% at night.
