use the daylight ones. once you go into flower you will need more than one bulb per plant. id say at least 2-3 per plant.

If You Are Talking Seedling's??? 1 or 2 Will Be Ok For Alittle While. Remember If They Are CFL's The Need To Be Mounted Horizontal Over Your Plant's, Not Vertical. The Light Comes From The Side's Not The End With CFL's.

If You Have One Over Each Plant & They Aren't Very Far Apart You Will Be Fine.
