Hanging down, just will have to adjust it while it grows but its worth it cause honestly they get more light than the lazy route.
Curious, what CFL wattage you using? how many or how many plants?

Actually, more light is produced from the sides of the bulb than from the tip or end.
Do you have reflectors on them?
