Is this Flourescent enough to veg plz ?
Vegging under 1x20w daylight T8, is this a waste of time or do i really need a bigger light ? I know they won`t grow like crazy but will it work at all? I only have 2 seedlings, thanks all.

You need more light. To get any sort of growth happeining, I have read acticles saying you need, at least, 50W of light per sq/ft of lighting.
Without proper lighting, the plant will stretch upwards reaching for more light, and without it, the stem will grow too tall, eventually not being able to hold up its own weight.
I suggest you get a couple 25W CFL's and use that current one you have, for a total of 70W. That will do now for veg., one plant, but when flowering time comes, you will need to at least double your wattage.
Try to grow in a small space for best light reflection. Avoid an open space as light travels, but with walls surrounding a small space for 1 plant, you could easily conceal it and get decent smoke.
