25W CFL for seedling/early veg

  1. Hey guys

    Quick question, I have 8 seedlings running of one 2' 25W CFL.
    How long will this be good enough?
    I am 3 weeks in and I wont be able to buy another light for 3 more weeks.
    Will this light be enough until week 6 til i can buy an upgrade?
     
  2. Ehh...8 seeds? It'll probably be okay, but you'll want to keep your plants in veg longer. Next to ventilation, the most important thing for your grow is proper lighting. That's not enough light. But like I said, you'll just have to leave your plants in veg longer.

    Exactly what im hoping.
    LOL By no means am I trying to grow start to finish with CFLs(no offense t othe die hard fans)
    I just dont want to stress them and get herms.
    These plants will be transplated in late february.
    Ill be adding more CFLs to keep it in the vegi for cloning and transport in feb.

    lol thx for the response
    im still abit worried i may go get a 125w CFL today lol
