Need advice on growing lights

[Jackf21792]

Hey guys, how are we doing today? I am currently starting my first indoor grow with my homemade box. Because of space constraint i am currently using two 60w cfls. The seedling seems to be doing fine, but i wanted to know if the plant should veg alright under those lights. Any advice would be awesome, thanks guys! Btw the pictures show one cfl, but i picked up a splitter and am running both now and the inside is painted with bher ultra white for reflecting.

I currently grow with CFL and have had several successful grows. You should be good for now but hang cfl above plant. I can see seedling growing sideways towards light. You should add more cfl's soon, your girl will need them in a couple of weeks. Are you using 60w actual or equivalent? Also should figure how to add a reflector. Check out 9fingerleaves cfl set up. Great, low cost light arrangement! Good luck and welcome to the forum!

Jack Im impressed with that exhaust system you made thats what this hobby of ours takes ingenuity. I don't grow with cfls but PuravidaC is right you need more of them and something over your seedling if you find the seedling is stretching then your light are to far away

Thanks puravidac, ill seefiniyely look into hanging them, i just wasnt really sure how to go about that seeing as i dint have any experience with wiring or electrical. Is there anywhere i can buy an adapter that is already wired? And thanks oldjarhead100, i was sitting around while germinating trying to brainstorm some ideas for keeping good air movement and thought a funnel would work awesome.

And puravidac, i am using actual 60w cfl. Not sure if i should get them with more wattage or just the same bulb

Alright guys heres an update. After we talked i went to home depot and got a bottle light kit so the light is now hanging over tye plant and i picked up a new 75w grow lamp. The light def puts off more heat than the cfls did so ill have to pay close attention so i dont burn her.
