Hey Dr. Herbivore, your plant is looking good!!
Since you've been asking, I drew something up for you. This is what I would do to get the most out of your one plant:
I would start LST'ing the main stem soon to get it growing horizontaly. You can probably just tie it down to the side of the pot to begin with. I would then set up a rectangular screen about 6" above the pot, with the pot at one end and train the stem towards the other side of the screen as it grows. Tuck all of the growth below the screen as you go. When the screen is about 2/3 full (like in the drawing) then you switch it to flower. Continue tucking the branches under the screen as it stretches, trying to fill as much open space as possible. When the stretch slows down and buds begin to form, then you let it all grow towards the light.
And of course, remember to keep your lights as close as possible to the plant throughout the entire process. This is one of the key's to growing with CFL bulbs.
Good luck and let me know if you have any questions!
Peace!

. Now that my issues are over, the fun will begin. THese are newly updated pictures, and flowering will begin within the next 1-2 weeks depending on progress. 20 Minutes is spent each day now re-training the growth. Life has came back to the leaves, they feel nice and like fresh cat piss 
. Any suggestions as to when to flip to 12/12 based on these pics is appriciated, and any tips for training is too appreciated. Also I need to choose blooming ferts. My simple mix of fish emulsion 5-1-1 and neptunes harvest wont cut it, so I have 20-20-20 high yeild for the last feedings or two, and then i need to make a good switch. I was thinking maybe flora nova bloom from a friend of mine who has some spare. Either way, pics 
. I germinated an additional train wreck fem. yesterday and it has already popped in under 18 hours (very impressive for these new seeds). I totally screwed up the last seedling by putting it inside the maid too early, do you guys think the lights in the veg cab are too close for a seedling? Too many watts? I could sprout it free standing in the room with a single daylight far above it, but i'd love to keep it in the cab from the start. Any suggestions for that, and also WHEN TO FLIP TO 12/12 ARE NEEDED !
