wrong lights?light disaster in progress need clarification

** For plants in 4 week of veg
Just bought two stupid lights ge 120vac 65 watt incadescent plant light

and walmart 24 inch 17 watt fluorescent grow light. also im using another low wattage fluorescent but its a supplement to a lizard light so its kinda craZy,
I only need this crap to bring me into sex so i can clone and move outside

Do i have to go bring this stuff back and get cfls? i couldnt find any and my plants needed more light immediately. i am growing in a stealth box i made so i have a couple questions... now that i have the incandescent do i need to move the light fixture. the fluro has always been 2 inch but now i see this is different? also i want my plants to sex early but im not sure they are strong enough after dealing with some mistakes. THEY HAVE BEEN 24 hours so far, should this change now or just turn one of the three lights off (assuming they arent trash)

how early can i clone and how to tell? is this incandescent b.s. gonna burn my plants? if so can i put a cfl in the fixture?? where do u buy fixtures for those bublbs or what will work? thanks much appreciated

Well for starters I would move the incandescent. You shouldnt have to move it much. Maybe you could place it somewhere like... In a different room... Next to your bed... maybe you can use it next to your computer cause you are going to need to spend a lot of time reading threads off this site so you can figure out that you have the wrong light for growing mj. The floros will work fine. Prolly not well enough. I would just get a few cfls and be done with it. WM

Home depot has 4 packs of 13 watt cfls for $5. thats only $1.25 a CFL.

But the bigger the cfl the better. walmart sells 42 watt cfls I think.

LOL Or maybe on a side table to read Buds for Less in bed or on a chair

Lol sweet.

spend 50$ on something like this T5 Fluorescent System, 4 Tube w/bulbs
u can get something like that at the home depot for 35$ the fixture then the lights are about 10$ so 45$ for all.
Happy Growing

get daylight bulbs they are great for vegging i have 2 t-8 phillips flo daylight 32w each 2800 lumens each bulb so 5600 lumens and i got a CFL now with a reflector. My plants are growing like crazy.
