i just dont understand how they can go from healthy and looking good to fallen over and dying in 20 hours
4-5 inches should be cool but just put your hand underneath the lights and see how warm it is on your hand and adjust according to that.Hope you don't mind me asking a question in your thread -
I was using 2 fluorescent tubes for my seedlings. Today I am transplanting to a hydro drip system.
I built 2 light strips each holding 6 compact fluorescent bulbs - each cfl bulb is 26 watts (total 12).
I did notice that they burn much hotter than the tubes. My plants are currently 2 - 3 inches high.
How far should I keep those bulbs away from the plants?
Thanks!!
