Am I Using Enough Light?

[sams3489]

I am growing one plant from seed under one 65w(200w equivalent), 4200 lumens CFL bulb.

Is this enough light for one seedling (only about 5-6 days old)?

EDIT: The plant is on a 24 hour light cycle.

you need about 6500 lumens per plant!!!

For now it is. i'd start adding more though.

how much for one plant?

Read i told you how much per plant!

 

[darkdestruction420]

10,000 or more per square foot is ideal, you can probally get away with 10,000 a plant however.
