Pics would really help, but anyways im gonna take a shot in the dark and say its probably too hot..... do you know your temp in there?
alright so here are some pictures, but the temp at the bottom of the plant is never above 85F, but the 1 inch space between the bulbs and the foliage is probably much much warmer than that..

Do you have fans in there? its too hot in there id say usually you want to stay around 70-80degrees
yeah i have one rotating fan.. ill try to explain my setup. its a space about 4' wide x 3' deep x 5' tall, with only 3 walls. i have a small rotating fan blowing towards the open side (where the 4th wall would be) blowing the hot air out, or trying to at least. directly across from the open side is a window, so i sometimes crack open the window to let some cool air in, but being 45-50F outside i dont want to "shock" the plant with such cool air.

Well the plant is already being "shocked" by the heat so u need to level the temp out, you need some air blowing directly to the plants it'll bring down the temps a bit for the plant.....
Last year i grew 3 plants in the summer in my small 5'x4x8' closet it was about 85 degrees in my room so it was pretty hot in the closet with all the cfls i had going about 200+watts i had two fans blowing directly at my plants which kept them at bout 80 degrees fans do make a difference. Add another one.
