i got this grow going on in my closet. im using 2 100watt, 1750 lumen cfls. just sprouted this morning. i made the box myself and after the plant is tall enough the box can be stood up longways so the plant can grow a little more taller. im pretty sure i could put one more plant in there but for now im gonna see how this one does. comments and suggjestions welcome of course!!!! day one down....months to go...wish me luck ppl!!!!

I'd get some 27w 5500k cfl's, those 1750 will work, but are mostly red spectrum if I'm not mistaking and definitely get those lights closer, that's how mine was for about 3 days and I had about 4-5 inches of stretching.

Granted this is a new grower to new grower, 

they are 27w 5000k. i looked at most places (wal-mart, osh, ect.) an they had the 5000k's so i went with those, im definately gonna keep an eye out for the 5500k tho and get those when i have the chance

You said 100w assuming you meant the equiv to Incandescent. So I thought they were the 26w 1750

You sure those are daylight? Look to me like soft maybe cool white.
But then again I might just be blowin smoke, my eyes aren't as trained as some of the others on RIU

yea ... I would put those lights down right over them , maby two inches ... or less if have a little circulation . It may sound a little ghetto but i would also use a roasting pan or something to reflect the light back down on them . To get the most out it I would also consider using the f.i.m. ( fuck i missed ) topping method and some low stress training after . There are some very good post about both of these methods on the forums if your interested .... Looks like your off and running ...good luck ... hope it goes well for ya : )
