I just started veg n got 2 plants under a 13w CFL, along with a 65w flourescent work light ( COOPER LIGHTING/REGENT LIGHT #FCTWL65 65W Fluo Port Worklight - Lamps, Portable Quartz - Portable Task Lights (http://www.homeandbeyond.com/prod-0025189.html?zmae=froogle&zmam=86451217&zmas=17&zmac=45&zmap=sku-0025189-00) )

do i need to step up my lighting a little bit?

it will work OK the first 3 weeks...then you will need more light

If you can, upgrade to a t-5 setup, if not, Home Depot has some CFL's that use 68watts, but give out like a 300w incandescent. only $20/ea the giant curly type
