A little constructive advice, you need more light man. It def has been very succesful and I'm sure its just about done growing. I feel you could have got so much more from this plant with more proper lighting techniques.CFL's do not get very hot at all so you should have had those about 1-3 inches from the plant depending on the heat they give off. I was looking at the plant while it was in it's first day of flowering and they are double the size of mine in height with very little side shoots. I know some people like tall plants, but when growing indoor its usually not a favorable trait cause of space issues. Plus who doesn't love a short bushy plant? If you want to get more yield you wanna get those lights closer and do some LST to increase size and number of lower and side growth. This way you can have more plants in a smaller area,if they get too bushy start trimming them, too tall start topping them, be in control of the plant. Also invest in some better nutes I personally am loving the botanicare line I use pro grow for vegging and pro bloom and liquid karma with a little sweet mixed in all from the botanicare line. As far as cfl's go they are not ideal for growing as it is, although i use them you gotta understand that fact,if your gonna go the cfl route you gotta double maybe triple the amount of what someone using hid lighting would use, also a fan on the plant is always good, it promotes stronger stems not directly blasting at it,just so its waving a little bit. You have the green thumb growing that plant in minimal conditions you could probably do very well with the correct equipment. Hopefully you give another go at it. Good luck
