Looking very good there, nice and green. Those lower leaves will die back as it grows, nothing unnatural about it. Keep us posted! MD

Now this is JUST MY OPINION. Looks good. You would get more yield doing two easy things.
1) Trim all that buttom stuff off (it can be hard to do, but it IS WORTH IT).
2) Get some more light in there.

Read..learn..READ..absorb...GOOD LUCK.

When you say trim all the bottom stuff , I'm aware people do this but what is the actual technique behind it ?
Do you take the entire branch from the main stem or would you leave the branches and just strip of anything on them ?

Just curious.

don't take any branches, just strip everything off of the bottom 5 or 6 inches of the plant, dont strip off the growth on the ends that are getting light, just clean out all the crap thats drawing resources from the main colas. it also helps with ventilation and helps stop problems like stem rot and powdery mildew

Does it not cause any stress to the plant If I cut leaves off? I heard it's best to keep them. (Unless they are yellow in colour)

Looking good. Just a suggestion if you do stick with CFLs. It looks like you have cool blue (about 6500k) cfls. These are good spectrum for veg. But once you switch, try to get the 'warmer' cfl. 2000-3500k bulbs have more red in the spectrum which is better for flower. Again, JUST A SUGGESTION.

I've heard it's good to mix the spectrum that's why I'm using those bulbs.. I have 5 2700k bulbs also..

I'm going to keep updating this thread with photos from now on. I've taken a bunch since I planted it. Saves creating a new one

looks like a claw but to hard for me to call it just based on that 1 pic, maybe another pic from another angle might help?
