best lighting

I'm starting my plants inside and moving them outdoors when the temperature cooperates. What kind of lighting is best for starting seedlings?

You can't go wrong with CFL's. Others like the tubes... All good for starters...

iv got a seedling under a 45w blue cfl about 1½ " away, going on the fourth node and their all ¼ apart

what more can u ask for , i bang the wattage up after about 6 nodes otherwise its a waste of light Imo .

gooooood luck

How long are these "seedlings" going to be indoors?

Make sure you transition them to the power of the sun, you can kill them easily by transplanting from weak indoor lighting to the full power of the sun. You either want to run stronger indoor lighting or put them in a partial shade spot (under partial filtering canopy) for a day or two outside before transplanting to it's sunny destination.

Cant go wrong with cfl...

I like CFL too start seeds under. Theyre cheap and get the job done. I usually run a 68w for the first couple weeks.
