looks good but you will need alot more lights and you need to get it in a normal pot or wrap it in duct tape the light coming through it will damage the roots and kill your plant

if you are hanging them vertically above the plant like it looks in your pic you are wasting most of your light. you want them horizontal over the tops as the vast majority of the light is put out by the sides of the bulb. how far away are you keeping them normally?

To be honest I disagree with dark destruction, you can hang a bulb in a horizontal or vertical direction. When you use hoods and what not, you actually use less light then when you do using a bare bulb hanging method. Reason being is that the light has to bounce off the hood and back down to the plant, versus a drop down bare bulb method where all sides of the bulb are being utilized. Then again though, it depends on the system your running. The more plants the better idea it is to use the bare bulb method because you can drop a light in between two-four plants and utilize the light perfect. None the less, more light the better. Just my opinion.

I use the hang down method with my lights and have great results. What you can do to really help though is buy a bulb splitter. You will double your lights without having a bunch of wires to deal with. Good
luck!

i said over the top should be horizontal, if the cfls are being used as sidelighting vertical is fine. if you hang up top vertically like that its shooting all the light out above the plant not towards it. a reflector helps but it would still be better to get a y splitter and have them horizontal(well, pretty much horizontal, the y splitters do have a bit of an angle) in the reflector.
