Does this CFL suffice for 3 seedlings?

  1. Hello,

    I was running my 3 little plants on a 28w cfl and I decided to change it to something more powerful.

    Today I bought this one:

    Now I want to know, is this too intense for 3 little seedling or just fine?
     
  2. depending on how old/big your seedlings are depends on how much they can handle

    cfls put out very little heat and therefore can be usually placed within an inch of plants
    and should be placed that close to get the optimal light penetration.

    basically your fine
    make sure you point the cfl sideways instead of straight down
    more light from the sides
    if you dont have a reflector
    make one out of some sheet metal or an old beer can
