Nice setup man, make sure to take care of them like a lady, and that degree of curling you have I would not worry about.

Are your bulbs just screwed into a vanity light?

I was looking for a vanity light fixture myself, but i wasn't sure how to power it. I ended up getting an extension cord/surge protector with 6 sockets and i have 6 CFL's attached.

Looking real nice, especially the first one.
Has heat been a problem? Are you under the stairs or in the attic? or...
Are your reflectors the ones for car windows? kinda look like that. If so those and emergancy blankets reflect a lot of the heat energy of the light but less of the light usable by the plants than some of the other choices. I would still say it's better than nothing but if heat was an issue i might do a test where I took them out for a day or two to see if there was a difference. Just a thought...
Cheers

All i did was paint the walls white...still have one to paint actually. Flat white works best.
Is the water heater adding heat?
If it was a gas water heater it would be awsome if you could use some of the co2 from the exhaust....but i seriously would NOT fuck with my water heater venting. It's a good idea on one hand but SO bad on the other.

lol yea I wouldn't want to mess with it..idk if its adding heat cause its n a wood cabnet basically I'll put the thermometer down there and c. This weekend I will take the sun visor out and maybe paint it but they did paint it b4 I moved in..can humidity b a factor?? Thermometer says it dry if so how do I fix it...thanx silver
You can take a Y splitter and plug it into the socket, then place 2 more Y's one in each of the first Y and you will have four. I just switched my lights like that today.

Looking good, looks like they are starting to grow now. My little seedlings were looking pretty sad for almost 3 weeks, but once they started to grow the improvement was dramatic.
