i got about 2 oz from 1 plant using 2 x 45w red cfls, iv also used 3 x 125w red cfls on a few plants with varied yields, now i use 2 x 70w hps and 2 x 45w cfl on sides and im getting better buds, the 250w hps/cfl i use now is better than the 375w of just cfls

Looks like some of your plants are hungry for N. Pics 4, 5, 6 the leafs are starting to fade in color round the edges. Maybe start your grow feed or up it if you have started. Peace
