ok..lets see if i cover almost everything...those lights are not near close to being what you need....light spectrum and wattage.the highest watt you will find at walmart type place is 23-26 true watts.and anything under 26 watts is usually a 2700k bulb.and always go by the amount of power it uses..which is its the equiv number..you have 2 main lights you want to use...2700k and 6500k..2700k is used in flowering and 6500k used for veg growth....too me anything under 250 watts as it comes to cfl's is pointless...you can grow with less then that...but you will get airy buds that wont get very dense....but like they said..get 3-4 42 watt bulbs..thats a decent start..just make sure you get 6500k bulbs for right now.you can get twin Y adapters to run 2 bulbs per socket if space is limited...have them mounted on their side...thats where most of the light comes from..or have them under a reflective hood....now for the soil/drainage...mg soil can work...most wont use it cause of the ferts thats in it...it burns seedlings which or more sensitive to nutes...and it lacks good drainage..it needs either sand and or perlite added to it..and maybe a little peat moss.can keep it in that for now...but id transplant it to other soil...or add a few things to make it drain better and get more oxygen to the roots.and if it dont drain right it can lead to root rot,fungus,and overwatering.as for the dying leaves...that can be due to too many ferts going into it...or the ph of your water.ph is one of the easiest things to overlook...def get a ph tester and test your water before you water it...and check the water that runs out the bottom when you water it.the salts that buildup in your soil can change your ph in the soil..your water could be at the right ph...but the soil could be way off....did i miss anything folks?

thanks man...sorry that i didnt reply last nite i fell asleep...but i put the plant underneath the light about three inches...im working on putting drain holes in it now...and i am replanting it tomorrow do you think that if it was water logged that it is to late to be saved? and how many more of them lights do i need to get for just two or three plants? she is about 9.5 inches i took the worst leaves off....i think too much water was the main problem because last night when i put just a little bitty hole in it and a ton of water came out of that litte bitty hole so im putting more in it right here in just a few minutes...were should i go from here remember i am on a tight budget...im sorry for bothering you about small simple shit man...

dont trim anymore leaves unless dead run at least 100 watt actual watt mind u per plant
i forgot what spectrum u have but 6500k for veg and 2700k for flower
and do not water again till soil dries out good then water when it feels light compared to now it is heavy with water
i forgot what spectrum u have but 6500k for veg and 2700k for flower

how do i tell what spectrum i have man i feel stupid but i dont know how to tell it says that it is 75 watts of light output and uses 17 watts of energy so what spectrum is that? im srry for bothering you about simple shit but i think that it is important to know the spectrum and i have no idea what mine is...i have two of those lights...im sorry again for bothering you about simple shit like this...like i said i am VERY NEW to this...i will figure it out it just might take me a bunch of ?s and trial and error
djruiner and fabfun are giving you good advice, as other members are, you should be able to find 42w bulbs at walmart. I picked up two 55w bulbs from there and i saw the 42's
If you can afford it get a couple of these bulbs http://www.1000bulbs.com/product/54683/FC80-11275.html they have a higher CRI rating than most CFL's. They have two color temps to choose,the 2700K and 5000K,which will will work just fine for the budding stage.
Here's some other bulbs to choose from http://www.1000bulbs.com/category/2-to-200-watt-cfl-compact-fluorescents/
CFL growing is expensive...Next grow I'm done with them!
