Here's a tip. Don't send pics in from your iPhone. Its easy for people/cops to trace and people have gotten caught this way. Not that they'd bother busting a one plant grow but still, ya always wanna be careful

Try a hardware store, they may have higher wattage bulbs available. I was able to score 43 watt cfls, and 65 watt from home depot, just make sure to get daylight, 6500k or maybe 5500k. When you switch to flowering you should then add warmer lights, like 2700k.

The biggest bulb I've seen in stores was the 68 watt 2700k bulb that Home Depot sells. Its a great bulb but its not 6500k.
Ordering from online really is safe. To not order a better bulb online because of safety reasons would be paranoid. this is what you want for veg http://www.1000bulbs.com/85-Watt-Compact-Fluorescents/9183/
Then you could add in those Home Depot bulbs when it comes time to flower

Looking good. I couldn't tell you shit about hydroponics, I'm a soil enthusiast.
Anyways, for flowering you will buy a 2700k bulb, I think its called warm white, although check the k to be sure. Right now I would say your at a minimum of 6 weeks to flowering, now you could start earlier, in fact many cfl growers do so the plant doesn't get too big. The problem is you only get a little bud. If you want a larger yield(more than a few grams) the plant has to be big and strong to support all that bud. I recommend waiting till its 20 inches tall, now you may not reach that height with those cfls you have currently. I grew one plant last year with cfls and I eventually had close to 200 watts of light when I started flowering, and it was only 16 inches tall.

this is my little cfl grow https://www.rollitup.org/indoor-growing/322731-my-first-journl-4-weeks.html and it took me about 4 months to get from where your at to where im at ( making adjustments adding lights). i know its kinda slow but get to learn the plants life cycle before you invest all that money on the hydro setup. itll pay off in the long run if youve never even had a crop. knaw mean?
check out my shit ive got 4 26 w cfls and 1 18w and ive learned more doing this than i ever have before. ( it is so controlled) and that chick is fuckin hot, one tit must be like a saka podados

Like he said, it takes time you have to be patient. If you want to flower early just switch your lights to 12/12, but be prepared to only get a gram or two of bud, if it even turns out female. If you want to get a full yield, than hold out, trust me it'll pay off in the end.

Ok I get it. Lol. I think I will just hold out for now. I didn't know that's how u got them to flower early. Lol. I started a new seed today imma put it on the window ledge cause the sun hits directly on it. And my window slides up so it will get some fresh air. And the new seed is in a cup. And its some new bud I got that my buddy hooked me up with. I asked the name of it and he said his guy called it CHRISTMAS lol. Anyone heard of it. He even said idk if that's what it is called but that's what his guy told him. But who knows. But it is great smoke though. I feel up lifted and a great sensation all over me. I think it might be a sativa strain. Cause I know what a indica feels like.

Looks nice to me, I see you've been spraying the leaves 
How old is your plant? Since you're using Mircale gro soil, I wouldn't worry too much about nutes, it already has many nutrients in it, add more and you'll get burn. Besides, if the plants start looking deficient that can be easily corrected by adding nutes, however if you get nute burn, you have to flush the plant and all that crap, not worth dealing with that.
Try and keep those lights as close you can to the plant, this is a crucial time for the plant, and it will start stretching if the lights are too far way, but that too can be corrected easily.
What light schedule are you on currently?
