yes you are gonna need more lights. and you want to get your soil to within an inch from the top of the container. if not stale air will sit there and your plants can get a disease, whose name i can't recall at the moment, where the stem will rot at the soil level.

Hey just a thought, with a box that size have you looked into going str8 to 12/12 flower mode? The height on that box is really small is it going to be just for veg or did I miss something? oh and don't ya just love cfl lighting,,,I am really digging other people's results with them.

The plants look good so far :thumbsup:

Is that aluminum foil? If so, it could be trapping the heat (among other drawback's, like being electrically conductive) Flat white makes a better reflective surface... Reflection isn't a big deal with cfl's anyways, they are not powerful enough to travel to a reflective surface and back to your plants in any significant way.
