Looks good so far. You will need more and better quality light to get the plants to really grow well tho. Airflow should be alright. It's perfectly normal for the bottom leaves of a new plant to yellow and fall off. These plants will shed leaves as they grow, especially lower branch leaves. They loose them even faster as you approach harvest...all perfectly normal. Learn to read the plants and they will tell you what they need and when they need it! Good Luck!

what would you suggest as far a lighting? id really like to stay cfl for obvious reasons. ive seen a good bit of set up that at least appear to work quite well with cfl's. mybe just a differnt cfl setup?

They make cfl in different spectrum and wattage up to 200W. T5HO and T5VHO are another solution.
