Lumens vs. Kelvin?
Now, if you can find a way of putting the 6500k bulbs in /with/ the 2700k, with maybe a 4100k cool white to round 'em out a bit more, the plants you have should be getting all of the nicely flavoured light that they need to go from start-to-finish...
And yeah, those y-adapter things are dang handy...
More light is usually not a Bad Thing (tm)
(c)C :chainsaw:CovertCarpenter Reviewed by CovertCarpenter 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(c)C :chainsaw:
