    That would be a VeG light man, I got my question answered and found that the Warm white lights and from flowering and The one you have now would be for VeG. I think the Warm white light could do a good veg to though . notorious P.O.T is only using " a daylight 42 watt cfl @ 6500 kelvin and a soft 50 watter thats at 3500 kelvin, and his grow is doing better then perfect. " I just bought one 42 watt Warm white lights @ 2700 kelvin ( I plan on getting another ) from my local home depot and One 30 watt Soft white @ 3000 kelvin I already had from lowes. I have one plant that is doing just fine @ day 16 of flowering I think. PiC at bottom... I would say all you need now is two or three 42 watt warm white lights now and you willl be on your way to growign your own bud :thumbsup: ...

    I'm actually considering just growing with strictly CFL's. BobBong got a fuckin good yield. I wouldnt mind substituting a HID light with those CFL's Bob's using .

    Compact Fluorescent Light Discussion

    Hey I got a question for you all. Ive done research on the net and here and found a good bulb that I can buy nearby. BTW: my plant is a seedlings at this point. The bulb is called a Philips Daylight Twist 27W ($15 w/tax for 2).

    Stats:

    Compact Flourscent
    5000k Cool [Spectrum]
    100w/27w Equivilant
    Lumin = 1600
    CRI: 82-83

    Now the issue is that I called up their support and I mentioned that I was growing plantation and they mentioned that it wasnt suitable for growing. Something to do with wavelengths (which I thought the 5000k was for). Then she tells me they sell Incandescents that do that sort of thing. Frankly, I thinks shes dumb but I need a second option. I dont wanna plop another 15 for bulbs....

    Bob, I think you should do a grow with just CFL's and not the incandescents. I'm really curious to how it would effect the yield. Because with the yields your getting I might just grow with CFL's and might not buy a HPS. It seems less suspicious to purchase CFL's and they save electricity and from your logs they seem to give a pretty good yield.

    Okay, thought this would be an appropriate thread to ask for opinions...

    Just received an order for bulbs I placed. Here is what I got, please tell if you think I am off on the Kv scale with the colors. Also, how much space do you think these lights will fill?

    2X 85W/SPRING/65K

    and then swap for these when flowering...

    2X 65W/SPRING/30K 65W, 3000 Kelv

    The 3000 KV bulbs are 300 watt equiv.
    The 6500 are 350 watt each.

    BTW... These bulbs are HUGE. Like maybe 10 inches each and 6 inch wide.

    Thoughts?

    With a 350 watt cfl, how close should it be kept to the top of a baby seedling?
