Message: [QUOTE="Levi8661, post: 90998, member: 4184"] Im trying to grow basil inside on my desk with cfls. I have very little gardening experience and am doing this more as a fun activity that probably will fail. I planted some seeds in 24 4x4in containers and have yet to thin them out. From research ive done so far, all of my seedlings have their seed leaves, need around 70 degree F heat and humidity. Ive constructed a little green house type thing made out of wood dowels and saran wrap. Im planning on adding aluminum foil around as soon as I get the final design down. My question is is what kind of cfls should i put over my plants? right now theres 2 bulbs about 10 in above the plants 1 warm and one daylight. I leave them on for about 13 hours with a timer. Also any other tips to increase survival rate would be greatly appreciated. Going for low cost here. Thanks [/QUOTE]
