cfl or not just keep an eye on the trichs..it might take a little longer because watt for watt cfls dont have the lumen output that a hps has..

You should flower at least 9 weeks then check your trichs.

Pics would be very helpful. And trichs can be deceptive. I would wait until 80-90% of the pistils are reddish brown, then hack away.
