Paradise seeds Dutch Dragon CFL LST grow.

I got my seeds very promptly from this site. They came from Amsterdam to the US and it took almost exactly a week from the day shipped. One of the 10 unfeminised seeds was somewhat crushed which I think could have happened during shipping. I always get unfeminised for the purpose of cross-breeding. The shell and everything was in the bag, just detached. It was shipped in a padded envelope with no return address. I watched my mailman put it in my mailbox personally. What a new feeling it brings to watch someone in uniform putting marijuana seeds in my mailbox. I planted them in paper towels and used a ziplock bag that I wetted thoroughly and left open a crack sitting on top of my laptop keyboard on standby. When I came back to check, it was warm to the touch and 2 days after planting them there, all 9 seeds sprouted, their taproots looking practically identical same length, width and curve. I planted them in a jiffy tray filled with 100% peat moss and 7 of the 9 sprouted 2 days later. I had them under a tupperware hood for humidity for the first 24 hours after they sprouted but once I took it off, they all drooped. Some ended up resting down on the soil but I presumed that the roots would grow to catch up with the need and after another day, they started standing back up and growing as expected. Most of them are now looking really good so I moved them from the "clone & seedling closet" Which is equipped with only 2 floro tubes and a really small fan to my bright area which has 6 CFL's, I have so far 2x100w @ 5500k, 2x27w @ 6500k and 1x27 2700k and 1x27 @ 4500k. Now, I have 2 white widows still vegging lst from about 8 weeks ago sharing the space. My flowering closet has yet to be used but I'm planning on using CFL's 4x42w @ 2700k (walmart). I've considered finding a HPS but I think I would rather try my hand at 100% florescent for my first grow. I'll post pictures later.
