All seems well man.
Remember you get more from the CFLs from the sides, just pointing them forward towards the plant like you are you might be losing a some lumens.
But at this point you seem to have good coverage anyways, so keep it up!

ive tried working my ways to get the lights on the side. but its kind of a small space in there and not a lot to work with. so im doing my best. i switched my little power strip with the bigger one now so i can use more lights... do you see the tips of the leaves at all and the little bit of yellowing? i know its not hot for the plant. so drying of the leaves isnt the problem... im not too worried about the bottom leaves as long as the new growth is doing fine than i have no worries

The tips could have something to do with what's in the soil, I don't think it is feeding.
If new growth is healthy, I would keep an eye on it but I wouldn't worry about it right now.

ok. as long as she is growing and looking healthy thats all that matters. and also im hoping she might stretch a little bit now as the 4 bulbs up top are 4-5 inches from the plant. i want her to stretch out a bit and get the new branches longer so i can take 2 clones in the next week or so before i put her into flower.

Maybe you should try use something reflective behind the lights, cardboard painted flat white or flat white paper, not sure if it's worth the effort though. When I started out a few months ago, I grabbed cardboard box from the microwave I bought and painted it flat white and put the plant inside with the lights. I have pic's somewhere I will post them if I find them if you interested.

did my transplant today im going to let her grow a bit more before i send into flower in 3 weeks. i moved her into a 2 gallon bucket and also put wood steaks around on the inside and duct taped (yea ghetto rigged) the bulbs to the wood so she will get more light from the lights as they are on the sides

I'd trim that dead leaf off of there, if for no other reason than that I'm seriously OCD about that shit.

I know you're excited, but with the problems you had at the beginning, and being uprooted once already, I know you had more time in that cup.
The more you mess with it, the longer it's gonna take.

I had her in the cup for 1 week not even lol. And she was in her other small pot for a goof few weeks. This is it. The final stage. 2 more weeks of veg and hopefully take 2 clones than she will start to flower
