Frist of all I'd like to say WELCOME! Now for answers to your questions. You are correct about the streaching due to the lights being a foot away. Now to get the most use from the lumes from your cfls keep the light 2-3 inchs from your plants. Now the lights will Surfice for the frist few weeks but investing in a few more will help alot. As far as the kelvin for veg and flowering you were correct but it never hurts to have more. Now when you get more cfls it won't hurt to mix up the daylght and warmlight gets the best of both worlds. Any other quesions ask away
camoxnhx Reviewed by camoxnhx on . Another CFL Question, All help appreciated Hello everyone. This is my first grow, all help is greatly appreciated. From the beginning I did some research and thought I was getting the right info so I bought some lights, but after some more extensive looking I think I may have messed up. I got 2 40w/150w equiv cfl bulbs, they are 4700k cool white and together would put out 5200 lumens. Iv read that plants that are vegging work best under 5500k lights, or a bit higher and when I start budding I should use a lower bulb like 2700k. Either Rating: 5
