Light for my seedlings

I just planted my seedlings and was reading different threads regarding lighting. I was planning on putting my seedlings directly in my tent under 1000 bulb high above the seedlings. Some threads are saying seedlings should not have too much light for the first week or so. Should I just put them under a neon so they will get less light and stay warm.

1000w will work fine but they dont need much light as seedlings save money use a florescent

The thing with putting your seedling far away from the light is that it is likely to stretch a lot towards the light. The best thing to do would be to invest in a tube fluorescent light so that you can put it right up on the seedlings to battle stretch. They come in handy for clones also.

Go to the home depot and get some HO-T5s, I spent around 130 for a 4 footer and all 4 54 watt bulbs. Works great on my seedlings.
