Provided you have a 24" stand (28" wide or about) and you have 2 of these tubes per shelf - you can grow not only AV babies - but AV winners with this setup.

Thanks for the input ,Tommyr and Irma....This is my first attempt at propagating AV leaves and need to do the right thing!maybe hang a fluorescent tube fitting over my plant cart which is about 24 inches x 18 inches...it can house close to 20 AV babies...
