I have 130w pc and they grow fine for me, using 50/50 lamps. I would think they would be alright but you may see them stretching for the light. Since the 29 is kinda tall for it's size it might not look like enough light, when one bulb goes off on mine it makes a big difference in appearance.

I agree with BS. Maybe get a little stronger lighting and you should be good
