Yellow?

Is this a normal yellowing there? My other sprouts dont got that. They are pure green. Did I put the 42watt CFL light too close?

42 watt is too low, but ya can use it in three or four days (:
go and buy a MH lamb and see the change.
your lamb is not enough for medium vegetation cycle of a plant

sorry I should have been more clear.

I have 75watts above the plant, and 42watt light on the right of the plant and a 26watt light near the left of it.

if you have good air circ. you should put the lambs to 1-2 inch, else 3-5 inch.
I got 146watts on that plant shared by 4 other plants. Someone told me that too much light when the plant is only this small is stressful?

when you have a little light like this, your plant will be stressed and become taller, that is not a good think

146 is cool but you must reflect the fotons to the plant, for get more light. more light wont injure your plant, dont be afraid.

You can run seedlings under like 200w fluoros (a lot of people do), what the guy that the hydro store probably meant, is don't go stick your seedlings under a 600w HPS light from the get go, because that much light penetration can be bad for the plant in it's first couple weeks.
