i use envirolites 125w cfls and i keep them about 3-4 inches away with no problems so i c no reason as to y 2x25w cfls could be kept a inch away to allow for the new growth to stretch for the light without touching the bulb but i would suggest a twice daily check just to make sure plant matter not touching

happy growing
LITTLEANDI Reviewed by LITTLEANDI on . CFL's distance from plant? hey guys i had a question. I have one plant right now with two cfl's about 25 w each. should i have these right next to the plant? like an inch or 2 away? or would that burn them? also if i do have the lights too close wont the plant not grow to its right height? any help would be great.
