They are all very healthy so far...

If you are not too opposed to it, I would probably
trim the girls up starting at the bottom. You just
started flowering, so taking a couple lower sets
from the girls will not effect the final yeild...It will
only help it.

Take those lower sets, and more energy will be
put into to top colas rather than maintaining the
lower buds...Which never fully develop, and are
useless for smoke...

I have realized peeps are hesitant to chop their
girls, but you won't regret it when the top's are
fat as hell...
 
Thats looking real good for just cfl's... i went to the hydro store the other day, and they laughed at me when i mentioned growing with cfls.. only if they knew what was brewing in my closet... if you dont mind me asking.. where did you get all the nifty lamp fixtures? and what kind of system are you using.... i have a hydro bucket system i got off ebay with nutes, bucket, netted pots, clay pellets and a water pump.. tryna figre out what to do with it... im using the AG right now
 
the lamp fixtures i made with hangers..and just using the clamps to adjust...i built my system with (2) 8 gallon buckets...there own air pump with a air rock..clay pebbles,nutrients,rock cubes,5 in net bucket......4 6700k cfl..2 2700K cfl..digi ther.&humd. whole setup...around 250 at max
 
yeah, so you pretty much got what i have... when i meant system, i meant growing system..

If you got two buckets, i take it your using a flood drain system?
