my plants look really healthy, but they look like they are stretching a little... how long should the stem be from the ground to the first set of leaves?

lumen's don't add......so it will still be 2800 lumen's...... but the more light the better, you should definitely put them together.

Right you need to buy some more 42watters but 2800 lumens as lumens dont add up like that ....it works like this
1x42w = 2800 lumens
42w is the most lumens So its like this 42w =2800 lumens double the (X2)COVER but still 2800 lumens x 2 of the cover (like same lumens but bigger sun LOL)

ok cool the only problem is it putts off more heat im sitting about 87 degrees F with the 23w and the 42w i guess i need to cut some holes in my box or figure something out.
