120 watts wont be enough for plants (plural). you really need to invest in another, especially if u have more than 1. my one seedling has 2 bulb 26 watt CFL to itself (2x 100 watt equiv) and im wanting to get 2 more. its a very simple correlation... more light = more growth

Another one would not hurt and i would suggesst getting one this willkeep you in good stead for the future too,a great little cloneing room.But i have been experimenting with energy saveing lighting the ones that have a realy low wattage but kick out the same has a normal lght i bought 2 the equate to 150 watt's each and the cloned plants love them they are rooting faster than the old flouresents that i have.I just bought 2 with crocodile clips on each fitting and clipped them to a screw that i have put inces apart [daylight bulbs and 1daylight warm daylight]
