CFL's are the way to go
all those plants looking good but im gonna have to give u a negative on those clear containers u have those clones in.
clear containers have a tenancy to let light threw...go figure.
Light+Roots=Stunted plants
wrap something around those, black tape works good, or u could get something else and wrap it around those.

Not sure if you did or not but if you dident, you should put your clones in small cubes and place them in a humidity dome because the cubes can retain moisture a little bit longer than soil and if in a dome it increases the relative humidity giveing your plants a better shot at rooting and make them root faster and easier. GOOD LUCK.

i am going to black tape those i just put them in those yesterday
i don't use mh for veg cause of heat there are still clothes in my closet lol the cfls keep it 77 f in there as it is. i need light not a vaporizer lol
and for humidity domes i use sandwich baggies with a hair tie around the 32oz Poweraid bottle (with only four small holes for drainage) just dampen the soil and wet the leaves with a spray bottle and spay once inside the baggie b4 i put it on the bottle the humidity is awesome the bag fogs up good

Im curious on how many cfl's your running because you can get a 105 watt cfl that produces 6900 lumes compared to the 1600 that a standard cfl gives off ( so the bulb would be 4 regular cfl's in one ) and if you have a duel socket ballast you can put 2 in and have the equivalent of a 1000 watt bulb with 13,800 lumens. They also fit in a regular fixture so you wont need to buy one. I have 3 in a triangle formation above my 3 plants and there growing even better and it lessens all your light wireing. Great investment.
