As mentioned light may be the issue. But your plant does look decent but can be better. Is this an auto flowering strain? When did you change your light cycle from veg. to flowering, how many weeks.

Ok let's get to the good parts people?

There is alot of bud growth towards the top of the main cola and youre side branches are starting to show alot of buds sights.
Its stretched alot but i also think that this is a sativa plant which grows stupidly tall anyway,also you do not have enough light which is the main problem.
So what are the lights do you have wattage/red or blue spectrum and also details of the 1 you are adding thanks.

Thats your problem, why the HECK are you growing with incandescent.. I'm not sure on this but I believe that plants only use 10% of that energy rest is waste. Use CFL's they work a wonder!

It can ideed be done, did it for years. It takes forever, thin, airy buds, tall, ugly, sort of like the OP's photos(sorry), but yeah, it can be done.
Get yourself a few decent wattage CFL bulbs, but make sure it's the true wattage, not the usage watt rating. There are some nice CFL's on the market now, and for small closet grows they do great. Also, get yourself a Y splitter for each socket you have and you easily double your lighting. That girl still has a lot of potential, and if you bombard her with good lighting now, I think you'll be amazed at what will happen. She's old and tall, but that means healthy, strong, and more than mature. Hit her with some good lights for another six weeks or so, and my money says you'll have something to brag about.

if you want to use 300 watt bulbs go to lowes or home depot. They sell 300 watt CFL's. They are huge and work awesome for flowering. I'm also trying the shop lights that wal-mart sells for starting seedlings. The shop light is in the light isle and its only like 15 bucks. It uses T8 bulbs. Seems to be working good so far.

I think other people went over this already but im going to put in my 2 cents. Your branches on your plant are way too spaced out and that is because they stretched due to the lack of light. Had they had more light they would probably be bushy.
