I just googled a Gatling gun and the CFL bulbs definitely do not look like them. The 45W CFL is a helix spiral compact fluorescent lamp which produces a lot of light. The 45 watts of power produces 3000 lumens, which is roughly the same as a 225w incandescent light. It is a huge bulb.

Some of the chilli and pepper plants in the propagator are an inch tall now so need repotting. I assume they can be planted deep when repotting, the same as tomatoes? I don't want them too leggy.
But that's where the lights come handy....if you move them very early on under lights...they won't stretch and don't need much attention for some while. Top growth won't start until they've made good amounts of roots. I don't prick and pot mine until they have first pair of true leaves just about starting to emerge...where as tomatoes will romp away with their growth as soon as they pop their heads up.I will wait another couple of weeks before thinking of giving of re-potting my chilli seedlings...and next stage from 'thinking' to action might take some while too...
do you have a heated greenhouse to grow the peppers and aubergines on in?
Wow, KGarden, your plants look so good!
