I've not tried vegging under 2700k CFL's, so couldn't say. The best way is to try one of each and decide which works best.

Mind you, I'm nor sure it's worth scrimping on outlets, your plants deserve the best! :thumbsup:

They aren't expensive, and once you have them you can use them forever.
Loafyboy Reviewed by Loafyboy on . Lumens vs. Kelvin? Is it more important to have more lumens or a good kelvin temperature? I have been using 2700K 68W (300W equiv) CFL's that are about 4200 lumens, but I found some 35W (150W equiv) bulbs that are 6500K but only like 2200 lumens. Which would be the better buy for vegging plants? Rating: 5
