Im going to have pic's in a couple days but i got a couple clones( already rooted in a cloner) and they have been in bad lighting and i think i overwatered and it stunted the growth. But i just bought a F20 T12 Flourescent from home depot and have them about 2 inches away. The 1 clone is about 2 inches tall and been going for about 2 weeks. Ouch lol

but i was wondering if the F20 T12 light 2 foot long from home depot is enough light for my 2 clones right now????

Wait, your clones are stunted? are they in a dome? do they have roots? have you transplanted them yet?

They are rooted clones i put in dirt... they took a 15 hour road trip with me the best light i had for like 3 days was a bathroom light... then i transplanted it with better dirt twice. no dome... they have like 3 leaves on them...and 2 leaves are drooping. 1 curled up 1 curled down . and the other leave is doing great ... im just like wtf...

sounds like you are worrying to much...why have to transplanted them two time? They are probably just hella stressed out. The light should be enough to keep them alive, but don't expect them to do much. just water them a LITTLE and leave them alone let them do thier thing, just let them grow

You should get some CFL's to try and revive them. They are inexpensive so you can get quantity. For a quick fix they are probably your best option is light truely is the issue with those plants. They sound like they have had a rough start to life.
