nice sized plant for an autoflower
i would chop or tie down those 2 colas that are way taller than the rest. then i would drop the lights down closer. if you bring the lights twice as close as it is now you will get 4x more light. just remember that light intensity increase at a inverse squared rate. meaning that if you decrease the distance by 1/2 if you have now increased the intensity to 4 times the initial intensity.
you will also get more heat... its a balancing act.. if you can get fan on that light bulb or a cooltube you can bring a HPS closer to the plants..
CFLS you can get the best use by putting them about 2 inches from the foliage with the sides facing the plant... make a reflector out of a cut open soda can or use a clip on light to maximize the light from your CFLS.

chop? hell no lol tie yes i did tie 2 down already and will do some more the issue with bringing light closer is one of my plants grows 2-3 inches a day it happens to be the tallest one lol and she always shows signs of heat stress till i move light away but yet when i move light she grows even taller see my deli ma lol
