fireweed did you make sure when you planted them you had the right ends up? and as for sticking them in the light . if you have floresence that will be fine to stick in the light but a incandecent light 125 watt is too hot .also the floresence has a standard 110 outlet plug. and for 4 plants just starting out i would use 2 flouresent tubes 4 feet long 40 watts a piece . some people recomend cool white and warm whites which are only a couple of dollars i myself use the plant and aquarium bulbs but are 8 dollars a piece. i use them to veg but would love to have a mh for veg instead . as far as hps for veg it will work alot better than flos. it is the best for flowering but its 1 light where you get the best of both worlds veg/flower i would not however use it on babys i would wait till there 2 to 3 weeks old before using any type of hids.ps whens using a hid light like mh, hps, mv your wattage should be around 50watts per sqft like for instance you have a 2x3 area that is 6 sq ft you would need a 300 watt hps,mh, or mv but you could get by with a 250 watts . you can go to lowes and get a 175hps now for $7995 or a 150mh $6395. but as for now all you need is flos. even cf work great are around 8 dollars a piece for a 42 watter . MUTT did you really like that 1 . i see stoneys hiding out now come and play lol. there was no harm intended stoney .
 
Ok thanx for your help skunk im going to try and get some new seeds and a fluorecent light. But as far as the question about getting super soil and if i would want to mix perlite with it and if i need vermiculite. Also can you reccomend some good fertilizers. Dont i want a fertilizer for vegitave and one for flowering. Im not trying to spend lots of money just want to be able to grow a few plants with some nice buds.
