this is my first grow and i want to know if im using enough cfl's. I have seven plants. i have four 42 watt cfls, 6500k for them and they dont seem to be growing very fast but im not sure how fast they should be growing. Its been about 2 1/2 weeks and they are only about 6 inches tall. I need a professional opinion. Sorry, no pics

I use 12 lights during each grow phase, so i have 24 lights total lights. 12 - 23Watt

6500k and veg for 3 weeks, then use 8 - 42 watt 2700k

and 4 - 23Watt 2700k for flowering. ive gotten good success with 4 or less plants

under this setup..

I would get a few more lights on them if I were you . I use 12 in each grow chamber . Like Blakkmask . But I have 12 43w 2700k in my flowering boxes and 12 23w 6500k for my mother plants and clones .
