if your cfl's are 10 inches away get them about 8 inches closer bud, 2 inches from your plant should help show improvements, do you have a fan on them at all? and when you say you "wait for the top soil start to dry" i get the feeling you may be over watering, i usually wait till i can put my finger in the soil say to my first knuckle on my middle finger without my finger nail getting wet at all its good to water, also try picking it up and feeling how heavy or light it is. another good way to tell is if the top of your soil is pulling away from the medium, like a crack that goes in a circle around the top soil around the medium edge.
Also i shur hope your not using any fertilizer on it yet, stay clear from miracle grow. hope this helps take it easy

Yeah the soil is pretty well dry before re watering and i had a fan but do to some technical difficulties it's no longer performing (fell to the floor). u think stagnant air would be the cause? they are still in vegetative stage although i should start converting them to flowering they are getting pretty big about 27" tall
