240 watt cfl cabinet grow

I am starting this journal a little late , already a little over 2 weeks into flowering, but I will do it for my own record and maybe get a little help along the way.

My cabinet is 3ft tall 3ft wide and 16inches deep. Covered the inside in mylar (hastily)

I installed a 50cfm cheap bathroom exhaust fan , along with a 3"x4" passive intake, it keeps my temps in the mid 70's.
I have 6 x 26 watt 2700k cfls and 2 x 42 watts , also 2700k. 234 total watts


Started out with 3 plants from some dank bagseed, 2 were male. So I get to concentrate one 1 girl for my first attempt
at growing. Which may be for the better.
I started tying her down after 2 weeks of veg , and you can see by the pictures, she is almost completely horizontal. Sporting 20 nice colas, so this ghetto attempt at lst worked, I guess.

The only nutes I have used is a 50% diluted Tiger bloom solution on every other feeding.

Any tips and/or questions are appreciated. Thanks for reading

A few more pics added , noticed my stems darkening on most of the sun leaves. Read all I could find on it and seems as though it is normal , hopefully this is the case.

checked on the plant today, and noticed what looked like 4 small seed pods on the very bottom of 2 of the buds......

hoping very much that pulling them will stop any pollenation, if she is trying to become a hermie. In the first pic you can kinda see what I am talking about.

The buds are looking so pretty I would hate for it to be ruined.
 
Well , the are no signs of anything anywhere else on her. The male flowers were only found on the bottom of 2 decent sized buds. Anyone know if it will be localized to there as it is now?

Also I read this on a random seed bank site , might be a little early to pertain to my female,but I have never heard this none the less.

Please note that occasionally specious staminate flowers will appear in the last days of flowering of a female Marijuana plant. These do not drop pollen and their appearance is not considered evidence of deleterious hermaphroditism.

I found it interesting
 
She has started yellowing her sun leaves , and putting out more trichs everyday.
I am thinking 4 more weeks till harvest, but thats a total guess.

Just added a few more pics, had quite a bit of growth in the last few days. Seems like the buds are making a final stretch before filling out...i hope
