I have 10 cfl running in a 1.5x3.5 and 8 of the have the clamp lamp hood going on. I noticed that the lights with the hoods give off alot more heat than the ones without. So much so that im having to pull them back off the plants because sticking my hand inbetween the light n the plant canopies is uncomfortably hot. Now i read a bunch of articles saying that cfls can practicle touch the plants without harming them..im confused.
The lights with hood have to be 7-9 inches away but the ones without can afford to be about 2 inches...should i just get rid of the hoods and get all the lights closer?
