Well i took out those crummy incandescents, and re-wired a 23 wt cfl, with a humidifier, to keep it humid, and the temp comfortable, so any thoughts on it now.....?!?!





Any tips will be appreciated.

1 23w bulb for 2 plants? That's nowhere near enough light, not even for one plant..

buy some Y adaptors and get at least 2 42watters in there and move the light to within 2" of the plants. As the plant grows you'll need to add more light - really you'd want at least 4 42w per plant and you'll need to make sure you have the 2700k ones for when you switch to a 12/12 lighting cycle to flower.

lastly, get a PC fan in there blowing on the plants to help strengthen up their stems, otherwise they may get top heavy and fall over.

well i took out the smallest plant, and put that in a new container, and put a fan blowing on the tallest plant, so it's getting strong...and im finally starting to see some new growth, 3 weeks later....haha....

^^^ all very good advice. You're going to need a total of 4 23w bulbs to sustain one plant.
