best cfl grow i've seen in awhile - very bushy plants you typically see with hid. excellent control of light distance. do you have enough light to properly flower that many plants? to keep up the pace you've started you want to be around 7,000 lumens per square foot of growing area during flowering. really tough to get that much light with cfl's but your yield will grow proportionately with the amount of light (within reason, don't go above 10,000 lumens per square ft).
some of your containers look borderline small for the size of the plant. you want to shoot for 1 gallon of pot size per foot of estimated final height of plant. at the end of each grow i check the roots to see if the plant was limited by being root bound, something you want to avoid as it limits yield. adjust in your next grow.
this may sound a little counter intuitive, but if you have never had nute burn then you are probably giving your plants less food than they can absorb, again limiting your yield. you might want to choose one plant to increase the nutes slowly (like from 100% of recommended amount to 125% of recommended amount) to see how your plants react. don't generalize too much because your different strains will have different reactions.
not a lot else to say, as things are going really well, thus not a lot of comments in your journal.

thanks a lot man! i know, not a lot of people have been commenting.
I'm either gonna get a 400 watt hps or a few 100 watt 2700k cfls. i'm not sure yet, it just depends on how much money i have.
and actually i'm transplanting the two smaller containers today to 2 or 3 gallon containers and watering with full strength nutes for the first time.
do you know if it's alright to let nutes sit in water jugs for a couple days at a time or should i mix fresh nutes with fresh water?

Watered with full strength nutes for the first time last night, Fox Farm's Grow Big and Big Bloom, they took it very well. I think i'm gonna veg them for 4 more weeks.

I haven't really messed with the Scrog from my experience. Im having excellent results with my training. If you notice the trainwreck in my grow it was extremely stringy almost, if not stretchy. All I have been using is some neon trotline string from walmart, and just completely laying the plant over. I'm not really sure if the Scrog is a bitch to pull the plant out of or not.. thats the only reason I havent wanted to attempt it. keep up the awesome work.. sub'd

Awesome, vanilla kush, and the pineapple chunk will be in my tent (as soon as I get it.) in my next grow, have to move from the closet, its just not enough room.
