[djkj6]

That might do them for a few more days but yes, you are definitely gonna need more light than that eventually.

Get that light closer, and yes, you will need more than that soon. How many W is that bulb there?

Seperate those 2 plants in the same pot right away, otherwise their roots will get tangled below, and both plants will not make it very far in life. Put each plant in its own pot, ignore this reply, and I bet I see thread in a months time..."what's wrong with my plants?!"

Get foil (use dull side out) or white mylar on your walls. Darkish walls just absorb the light. You are losing a lot of good light not doing that.

dark side out??? the other sides more reflectve

[Nochowderforyou]

It may be more reflective, but the bright side, all it does is it bounces the light back and forth from each reflective surface, not getting the plant. If reflection is all that mattered, a person should just use mirrors.

Dull side out.

thx, whats the dull side do btw

[djkj6]

have them sepparated...and have 3 75watt bulbs on a fixture from HD above them...one looks ill, the other sprung up another set of leaves overnight and looks to be loving the setup...i couldn't paint the walls, so i am using some pieces of cardboard standing along side the pot that are flat white, gaps between the pieces still allow for airflow...seems to be working!!!! I hope that takes care of it for awhile????what do you think???
