It can be reached just depends on your conditions. I would LST them ladies for like 2.5 more weeks. That a get you a lot of new tops to work with. What light are you using?

If ya got the space let em veg for a while. They will stretch in flower & get 2 times or more bigger than they are before you flip.

no one can honestly answer or even a wild ass guess with the limited info provided....if you are using one 23 watt CFL...then I would say you have no hope in hell, but if you have a 600 watt MH and/or HPS....well then you just may have a hope in hell

plants look good. you can flip them now. assuming you have no limiting factors and adequate light your plants will yield about two zips each.

I have 20 cfls which are 23 actual watts each , 100w equivalent totalling 460w/2000w equivalent. They are loving it so far . I do have a 1000w hps which I'm not using becuase I rather stay discreet but If I have to I can switch to that

I would switch to the 1K HPS for flower. Let them veg 1week under HPS to get the stems hard then Flip to 12/12. You will easily be able to get over the amount you want. Start LST now and till the 2nd week of flower and I PROMISE you will love the end yield...

like tron^ says, if u can take the heat, use the hps for flower. iv grown many with cfls and u get great quality, quantity lacks. i have gotten 2 oz a few times with cfl. , plug the big boy in and shouldn't be a problem. train her, lst or crop get her opened up for light. great lookin girls btw, good job
