They can be cool white, daylight, or warm white. You want cool white or daylight for vegging. Yes, you can get your plant to grow quite nicely with them, but more light is better. At least get one of those "Y" shaped adapters that let you use 2 bulbs instead of 1. :thumbsup: Just keep the lights real close and maybe get a small "el cheapo" fan. The wind will cause the stems to be stronger and the area to stay cooler.

Did you remember to put a hole in the bottom of your cup? It is important! If you don't put one in, the water blocks the oxygen to the roots and the plant suffers. There is a reason there is a hole in the bottom of flower pots!

Use good soil! When you transplant get good soil! Don't buy Miracle Grow anything is a good rule. (Yes, some of their products are "OK", but as a general rule ferted all wrong for cannabis.) I transplant from a 12 oz cup, to a 32 oz cup, to a 1 gallon pot, to a 19 gallon rubbermaid tub (2 plants per tub).

To veg your plant, you let it grow under 24/7 lighting. Since you want a fast turn-around time, as soon as your baby gets 5 fingered leaves, you can buy a timer ($5) and set the lights on 12/12. This will cause your baby to mature- whether a boy or girl.

Have fun!
