Ok so this is my first go at this,

Currently they are at 6 inches of height, 1 1/2 weeks of growth since sprouting.

"6 Plants"

I am using:
2x200w (40w) CFLs (2800 Lumens each)
4x100w (23w) CFLs (1600 Lumens each)

10-10-10 Nutes currently in veg.

They are vegging great, no yellowing, no stretching I mean they look beautiful but I am preparing for when I start to flower and I wanted to know what I need.

Now I can't order any of those "special" nutes you get online, so I'm looking for stuff that can be bought at local stores like Lowes / Menards etc.

Currently, i have Miracle Gro Flowering 6-12-6 Nute Spikes, would those be good enough. This is just bag seed for the first run to see how it goes, so not caring if I don't get a huge yield, just trying to see where it goes and how it works, is there anything better then the spikes, that can be grabbed at the local store ?

You need way more light and totally different nutes to start. Firstly you should be looking at 6400 spectrum light within the range of 95w x4 4ft t5 bulbs. This way you can veg the plant a good foot and a half and get her big enough for some yield. The minimum flower light should be 600w and only for 1-2 plants. Now for nutes. Heavier nitrogen in the first 3 weeks more p & k in week 4-7. Flush last week to get better tasting buds. I suggest getting the grow bible from Barnes and noble and rad the section on Nutes. Well worth the 20 bucks.
