This is my second attempt at growing, as my first plant got too close to my lighting + poor ventilation which resulted in it frying up. So about 10 days ago I found one seed out of an ounce of some bomb weed. I put it in a damp paper towel to see if it would sprout, and opened it a few days later to find a 4 inch tail with the cotyledon already growing 
I planted my seedling about 3 days ago in some unknown dirt I pulled from a flower garden and put it on my window sill. Unfortunately my window only gets sunlight for about 7 hours a day so after a night I decided to put it under some cfl's. I cleared a little area in my closet and set up two 60 watt soft white cfl's (these are all i had on hand) as well as another lamp that has some sort of curved fluorescent tube so I figured it couldn't hurt. So far its grown about an inch and sprouted two more pairs of leaves, but I wanted to know how soon I need to get ahold of some cfls with the right color spectrum? Is my plant even receiving any useful light?

Ill be able to pick up some daylight cfl's soon but I wanted to make sure it had enough to keep going for now. The stem does seem to be a little bit skinny but I dont have a fan or anything set up yet because it doesnt get hot enough to need one and I heard they gain strength and thicken up with a fan pointed at them.
