Chuck,

I am using a 125W CFL in my basement over trays of seedlings - Dendrobium
kingianum, Aerides flabellata, Aerides crassifolia, Phragmipedium China
Dragon & Phrag. Sherman's March are all doing great at about 3 feet
distance.

The particular bulb and fixture were from Farmtek for under $100 delivered:

Hey Ray... What area are you covering with the CFL (approximately)?
And do you have an idea about the bulb life and replacement costs?

Thanks,

Rob
