Nice.

If you are growing outside and not supplementing indoor light my guess is
you have one more week of growth. then it will slow down.

If you plan on taking clones do it now. Looks to me like your plant is in
pre flower and if you wait to long its harder for the clones to root.

Yea plants explode with growth in preflower, trying to get as big as the can. The first two weeks they stretch the most. Then they settle down and fatten up.

You probaly have about 6 weeks of flower so I would suguest you do get her indoors.
Flowering a single plant indoors can be done with cfls but you need one at each tip of the plant. that can get complex.

400 watt HPS set up on ebay goes for like $120 That would do nicely.
Hang it about a foot away. Thing is you want to make sure it has at least 12 hours of complete darkness each 24 hour period.
