    Put em under but u have to get height right over babies depending on the size of light mate, if u using cfl 4 inch to start-ish, if u using 400 HID more like 4 foot and slowly bring it down over the weeks.

    CFL s will do u but try to get it up to 125 in veg, u sure u cant spare 30 odd quid or less: http://www.greenshorticulture.co.uk/...Lamps-1272.asp, bang it in one of these and make a reflector: http://www.greenshorticulture.co.uk/...p-Lead-778.asp. You could probs get the lot on ebay cheaper but if not u can get real cheap cfl strips from wilkinsons.
