How many watts of cfl? Are you 3 weeks into 12/12, or did you preflower? If you're 3 weeks into 12/12, pistils is all you're going to have, totally normal. Without nutes they'll probably develop slower, although I've never done that. Pics and more specifics would help, but I wouldn't worry...

the buds don't fill up 'till the last few weeks. You should be feeding them some sort of blooming nutrients

I can't see the pic you posted... just a box with a red x. Can you post a pic? You really need to be giving it nutrients.
The first few weeks of flowering shows pistils, but nothing else. The buds don't really fully develop until the very last couple weeks.
Generally this will take 6 weeks of flowering if it's an indica dominant strain.. or up to 12 weeks if it's a sativa dominant.
