T5 Grow Box to Bloom Box

[tacman7]

I have an 8 tube bloom box with 3000k bulbs and a 4 tube grow box with 6500k bulbs in it.
Also the grow box has 2 T12 plant bulbs.

Both boxes are full and I want to switch the plants in the grow box over to flower.

So I'm just going to have two flower boxes for a while.

I've seen some mixed use of lights.

I could just trade a couple of bulbs from the flower box and put in the grow box?

That way they have a little full spectrum lighting.

Would that detract from the flower box?

Or I could just go buy more flower bulbs but like to avoid that.


Any help appreciated, Thanks

I recently noticed that my small T5 fixture had 12000 Kelvin rating.. Dutch Pimp mentioned something about mixing light spectrums.. It was OldMac,that posted it.. I can't find the post.

Anyway.... I just put 2 of the 120000K bulbs in my new T5 and visa versa. I'd think you'd be fine with what cha got unless you just want the lower kelvin rating. Spend ya money on ya next grow!
