Looks good.
Why not go t5 in the future? Less bulbs. More output.

These are in 15 inch wide pots that hold about 5 gallons. The two on the right are right at 3 ft.
I normally grow scrog though like yours.

Its nice to see someone else taking advantage of those cheap little househould 23w cfl bulbs.
I only use 10 23w cfls, though. 1625 lumans each, but added reflection with mylar very close wrapping arond.
Only for veg. Once im ready to flower its a 400w HPS. 7 weeks tomorrow on this gem....

Cfl bulbs put off enough light but as you know, need to be very close. Thinner stalks are on taller plants.
With cfl bulbs putting off enough light, but so close the stalks grow fatter instead of taller. Makes for really good strong branches to hold big buds. Ive been on this current techniques for two years now without anymore issues after trial and error. All my stalks are half dollar in thickness and the plants stay under two feet tall.
