ok i dropped the lights a little lower, and im looking into buying a power strip so i can plug some bulbs into that instead, its just i didn't do that because its heavier to hang and its not really hanging over something to sturdy.
and as for

Quote:
Those babies look very thin and stretched, either move your lights closer or invest in a better CFL. something like this for vegging -
125W ENVIROLITE Grow Lamp / Light - 6400K Veg - New on eBay, also Hydroponics, Plants Seeds Bulbs, Garden Plants, Home Garden (end time 19-Jun-08 23:25:00 BST)

and then you'll need the red spectrum version for flowering.

I wouldn't worry too much about fire hazard as long as your wiring is all good.

good luck
they are like that because they were under a T3 Halogen bulb which isn't meant for growing.. so this is their first day under these cfl's and in this room, they were in an open room just under a flood light before this.

so the lights are now closer but it seems like 1 of the tall ones just keeps drooping all the way to the side.. so i packed soil up a little to hold it a little more sturdy, but its really bad i hope the stem isnt broken under the soil's surface.
