Get the lights closer. Or get more lights. You are doing ok but you should have a bit more bud on those stems. Add more lights of brings the cfls closer to the plant. You want them one to two inches away at all times

WOW !!!! man you still have 5 more weeks..those are beautiful Come on spill the beans how long veg how big are they now.. what strain.. did your buds fill in from the bottom to the top or top to the bottom ? Man Just start a thread,there is other CFL growers on here that who'd love more pics..
Ya OP get more lights on those puppies Look at what Zubey did.. You need at least to triple your watts, if you want a lot more bud.. But don't feel bad I need more to, I need another 1200 true watts for mine and had to waist that money on the rent...

Sup fellow SA grower here nice looking plants it looks like you are also growing Swazi red , did you get the seeds outta some local bag stuff with proper formed nice big buds full of red hairs 
. Could be something else besides Swaz but looks sativa and how swazi buds .
Why are all the fan leaves off did they turn yellow and fall off I`m suprised they did this well that potting soil looks extremely barky that stuff is my sworn enemy , Just use garden soil the soil is nice and fertile and perfect for growing pot and be careful of compact clayey soils though as the roots can`t penetrate it .
It`s looking pretty good though keen to see them fill up just remeber our strains if it is one of our sativa landraces have pretty long flowering times like 12 weeks for Swazi 10-12 for Durban Poison and 8-9 for transkei this is a nice fast flowering pure sativa . Peace keen to see how it all goes bro .

Oh sorry lol did`nt see you stating the strain yeh now that you mention it does look like a hybrid we`ll see how it does that trainwreck is becoming a very popular indoor strain here in SA . You got a 072 number so i`m assuming you from here sup look out for indoormania and daggamonster too other sa growers I`ve encountered on the site .
Oh shit mites we get that shit here xD ? I never seen those fuckers once never had any brown spots on my plant as a result still check underneath just incase . Guess that`s why everyone use`s those potting soils because they don`t have eggs and shit in it .
Zub sorry quoting not working here did you mean that durban posion is resistant too spidermites or that they hate it and love destroying it ?

SPider mites ususally don't mess with durban poison.. they dont like it for some reason.. never had mites on durban poison ever
Also my buddie had 950 plants growing... had a small mite infestation.. about 200 plants had mites.. in the middle of all that 3 durban poison plants.. no mites whatsoever.

Wow yeh i only grown on smallscale in my garden but all our landraces and highly resistant than pests if you even come across a strain called transkei you should scoop up a few on those seeds it`s a pure sativa that grows relatively small and is sold as high grade here it easily competes with durban posion on the quality aswell . Heres a pic of some bud from it http://belowthelion.co.za/wp-content/uploads/transkei-weed-cannabis.jpg and it has varying tastes in it`s genepool aswell my favourite local strain
