the hps is great for flowering....... but I would start your veg with daylight cfl's at 18/6, then flower with the hps... you should have some nice results that way.

Yes... and Yes =]
Actually you can start with just one 26w cfl per plant at the biggening, and add cfl's as they grow. Keep the cfl's close to the plants at all times.. about 2' away.
Or..
You can start all 4 plants, under one 100w cfl... and add another 100wcfl as they grow and so on.

Sounds good... what kind of cfl's are they... daylight/softwhite?
and I wouldn't use the heat lamp unless you need the heat?
any pics of your girl? =]

I'm sure she is going to enjoy the softwhites while she flowers... I'm sure she'll give you some nice sticky buds... good luck man, and I hope you can get some pics of her flowered.
