    need help on lighting! please read

    okay so im currently using two 18 watt flouresent bulbs for my one plant.
    (and its not growing at the speed i want it to.)

    it still looks like a baby and its been a few weeks..
    so i am going to purchase bulbs butt i need help!!!


    -im using a clamp lamp (from a reptile i had) and a regular skinny house lamp
    with both flourecent 18w bulbs.


    i was wondering if you can buy like the light bulb socket with the cord to plug in?
    so that you can like mount it where you want?
    without all the wire hassle?

    anyone have any good websites where i can find something like that?
    i have been looking but i dont see anything that looks like what im looking for..
    i dont know what they are called either..
    any advice would be soo very helpful
    feel free to put in your 2 sense!
    heres my plants..


    oh and nutrients?! anyone wanna lay it out for me? like when to start and where to find the facts?

    ohh and another thing
    those y splitter things?
    you just screw it into your lamp socket and then you can plus in a bunch of bulbs?
    im a little confused.. is it better to do that then you buy seperate sockets?
    even if my lamp says max watt is 60?

    The y splitter will maximize your lamps potential, if it says 60 watts max then you can get up to 3 18w bulbs going on there(54w), or 2 23w, 1 42w & an 18w, etc. but never go above the listing. Not sure if you can get the lamp socket attached to a cord except with the clamp lamps really but those should be like $15 and it's not hard to wire a socket its 2 wires and 2 screws. Hope that helps your confusion
