I know the name of this site is not tomato.com but really need some help from the real experts at growing indoors so hope no one gets mad about the post.
I am getting into the hobby of plant breeding so wanted to grow a couple of wild hybrid tomatoes indoors to try and get some seed to distribute next spring.

I have two CFL lights a 65 actual watt bulb (2700k)and a 125 actual watt bulb (5500k). I started the plants under the 2700k while my 5500k was in the mail.
Had 100% germ rate and slow growth but healthy plants, then switched to the 5500k one I got it and my plants burned up, wet soil but crinkly dry leaves and no new growth. My ? is how far can I place the lights away from the plants and still have good results as currently they are too close

Here is a couple pics





at the current distances I can not run both lights even with the fan running
