More light is always good. Throw a couple of 42W soft white CFL's in there if heat isn't a problem. Bloom nutes would help too if you're not doing that already.

Why are you using cfl it should be HID! anny thing else for flower is not the same. A small HPS system will cost less than an ounce or cronic, and can produce over time endless ounces. Train wreck is a great strain ,not a large producer, but either are your lights. Rember you get out of it what you put in to it, good luck, got my own prob. right know 24f with snow I have 32 allmost finished lovely ladys got to go check my jet heater make sure its still got propane.
 
looking good but i would def add more Cfls or small HID. if you want a bigger yield switch to high pressure sodium. but if you're not concerned with big yields then atleast couple more red cfls

it looks good for a limited grow....try and position your lights all around the plant and not just on top
 
HD had a nice CFL,( limited budget )
68w=300watt out put and aroud 4200 lms, last 2700k. I think this will boost my flowering !

I now have 6 x 23w (100 out ) at 1700 lums ea. = 10,200

and 1 huge 68w x (300 out) 4200lms.

All "sofe white"...
Does all sound ok total about 30.00 out of pocket. :peace:
