Once they get bigger you'll want more coverage.
What I would do is add the tubes vertically as side lighting, to ensure good light penetration.
How big is your space?
my space is an entire freezer room in the basement. (4X6 maybe?)

unfortunately, the downside of this is that i have nothing to ideally contain the lights to only the plant area, besides some whiteboard thats stapled to the sides of my light board (hanging 2X2 corkboard with the lightsockets screwed to it.)
