My advice wasn't meant to be condescending at all, but if you choose to take it that way, so be it. I am just not here to pull punches and pretend like I don't think what I am thinking. Many may have worried about hurting your feelings. I may have done that, but you should understand that I've been doing this for a long time and have had a lot of failures of my own. My own starting grow was pathetic, and you're on a much better track than I was. I just know that the pain my words may inflict is nothing compared to the pain of dead plants. That is what I mean about approaching this grow with the right sort of humility. I still ask people for advice about things and I've been doing this for 6 years now. I'm no better than you, you're no better than me. I was never saying anything of the sort.
Anyway, the 17W T8 fluoros are great, but you need a lot of them. Wal-Mart in some places does sell a 2-bulb T8 shop light for 10 dollars, which is usually what they want for those single bulb ones like you have. If you could get a couple of those and put them vertical in there you'd be set for such a small space.
