My buds have very few trichomes.

possibly temps/excessive air movement sure.

The tops are all flat & not a single fresh pistill, almost like the grower keeps touching/grabbing the colas... Idk

looks like they actually got squished or something pic 3 shows it

makes them mature faster man, you can tell by the way they amber up day after squishing....

and you wonder why the trich production is so light, hmmmm

Yeah, your plants can only grow to their weakest link. In your case it's lighting. If you want to grow with CFL's you will need more. Allot more. You can also do as Roger said and try T5's. If you want to step up your game look into a 400W HPS or even LED's. You can look into HLG, Timber, or DIY with parts from CobKits. I hate to say this but even a Mars panel would do better than your current setup, but don't go out and buy a Mars, they junk.

In the in few months i'm gonna move to another apartment and there i will have enough room to get a better setup.
But for now i am stuck with a small ikea cabinet as a growing tent with weak cfl.(bigger ones generate way too much heat)

Could you maybe change to LED then? Wouldn't they be likely to generate less heat?

It's a very tight space man, not enough height, the main cola almost touches the ceiling.
The plant is in a ikea alex cabinet.(the one with the door)

Just a thought

Edit

I was thinking the likes of this sort of thing, and figure out how to bodge something to reflect "wasted" light back to the plant
