hey you should consider getting some cfl lighting in there.. your plants will love it and you can put them close enough to keep from any streching.

first your pic didn't show of your grow room. here is a link to the spot in my journal where I started with cfl, there is a lot of good info there.. as for the cost I think I dropped like 8 bulbs for less than 30 bucks, and ya don't really need that many but the more the better.. make sure ya check the journal carefully as well cause I have two different light discussions goin on at once there.

yea that bulb wont do man... it will cause strecthing and you can a lot more out of just two or three cfl bulbs.. if ya can afford it some mylar would be great in there. can you exhaust air in there and bring fresh in?

also, i have it on a 19/5 light schedule
since its young i figured it could use an hour more light
is this bad?
should i take it down to 18/6?

well you were right
my smalle plant stretched like a bitch
haha
but luckly my other one is growing newer leaves (very tiny rihgt now) and looks very healthy, well according to me

i went to the store and got a 42W cfl and a 23W cfl
i set the 42W up but i still have to go buy something to put the 23W in.

well as the days go by my grow seems to be doing somewhat better
they fell off the tray i had them off and i had to kinda replant them
no root system got dammaged
and they still look good, i think
i am now using a 27 CFL bulb, which has 5500k
and another tube flourecent, dont know the wattage but now i know it has 6000k
i was wondering when you guys think i should water these things
cuz i just do it when the firt like inch is really dry.

anyways how do they look?...

i have noticed, that on one of the leafs on the arger plant, has a very very very tiny brown spot on it.
the other day when i went in to check on them, the light was like 3 cm from touching the plant, somehow it lowered.
but anyways
could that be why the little brown spot is there.

ps. i would post a picture
but its literally so small, it wont come out.
