i would imagine it getting to much water or the lights arnt close enough, try upgrading to a t5 something that puts out at least 2000 lumens, or grow outside like me

you can get those cfls pretty much as close to the plants without touching as you can just get a fan blowing on them to help dissipate the little heat they give off. heat stress will probably be caused by room temp and not by light if u are usin a few cfls. using how much your pot weighs when fully water compared to dry can be a good way to figure out when to water, i genrally just wait til the soil drys at the top and begin to pull away from the edge, practice makes perfect when knowing when to water. if you havnt watered for a few days and the plant begins to wilt it needs some water.

idk im startin to doubt what every one says about how cfls put off "low heat". im running 4 26w in a 50 gallon rubber maid for my veg room and the temps are in the 90s with fans and ventalation. CFL do get hot id say my flowering room stays cooler with a 150 hps then 4 cfls
but thats just my opinoion
update..... she is still sickly but i have noticed between the main stem and branches it looks like leaves coming out. any ideas. i have 2 new hatchlings that popped last night so that is good. i also went to home depot and got me 2 more cfls. i now have her under 4 6500k.
