couple more noob questions (pics)

[jim1985]

today i purchased some clones, the only light i have is 600 watt so that is no good for these clones the 1st picture is an an energy saving light bulb will this work untill they are strong enough to take the 600 watt light

2nd picture is some baby plants from seeds i germed 1 week ago one of them looks really long i dont know if this is wrong. iv had them by the window so they are growing off sunlight. should i now put them under the energy saving bulb?

really new to all this reading up on books and instructional dvds but this is the last thing im unsure about

also im right that these should definatly have any nutrients yet arnt i?

You can start using the 600W light anytime you want, just make sure your clones are a good 36"+ away from the light. I ran mine as soon as I planted. One good 100W CFL is probably all the light you need for the first week or two, though. Oh, and no nutes for the first three weeks. After that, introduce at 25% strength just to be safe.

Just make sure not to cook 'em and you'll be fine.

try lining your container w some reflective material it will concentrate the light a little more
