That actually doesn't look too bad for cfl lighting. I hope that pic is towards the very end of the grow though, because if you've still got a few weeks left to go, those plants have been a bit undernourished.
Maybe I need to change my feed I give them. The stuff I'm useing is only from the one pound shop in town maybe that cud be the problem. Two plants and lsd and one is a dwarf and one is the same as my super cheese and I have to say that one ain't that bad but had to put it bk in as only the tops was ready there's a lot still with wite hairs as they say
 
Yup, basically not enough light close enough etc, binning the CFL`s and grabbing a cheap HPS is probably the easiest/cheapest option for you atm since you have the tent n stuff already, either that or use 1 bulb over each plant in a SCROG n get bulb as close as possible without burning em etc
 
It would be enough light if you kept your plants shorter, better pruned as R1 suggest so you could keep the light much closer. Once you start getting taller plant growth and you have to start backing that light off more and more, you just don't have the power to get the same results.

And they was pruned a fair bit but then someone said don't take to much of and I did I took a shit load of fan leaves of they looked like twigs lol
 
yw mate, out of interest have you looked into a cheap HPS setup? would improve yields dramatically for minimal outlay etc
Ye I have an I'm gonna get one buy I'm gonna try this scroging see if that helps if not then I'll Deffo be getting one of them and don't get me wrong there's nowt wrong with it I enjoyed the smoke

I'm gonna have another go on the cfls just gonna add some more side lighting this time and try and scrog as I only topped this time
 
Side lighting is overrated. Get the HPS, you don't need side lighting.



Side lighting is way overrated. thats 300w lol. with a autoflower at 6 weeks He needs to put the lights way closer.
