Cloning questions

[orangeman]

Is it recommended that I get one warm white bulb and one cool white bulb or does that matter? Whats the difference and if I'm using a CFL like this and can only get one bulb what should I get?

Cloning questions Well I was really thinking to my self and I might just go ahead and clone some plants and just growing those out because it seems to save time and money when it comes to constantly buying seeds, but before I do I had a few questions about them. First off, what would be the lowest wattage from a fluorescent light that I could use to grow them, like 150w? Would that work? Also is it really necessary to leave the lights on for the clones 24 hours or would 18/6 work just as well? Also whats the Rating: 5

I just use a regular 4' fixture with two 40watt tubes. I did go ahead and speand the money ($7-$15 each) for to full spectrum tubes but you really don't need them.

Cool cool cool is the answer. Warm is no good unless you use just one in a 4 tube fixture, then go 3 cool and one warm. You are just getting them to sprout roots then veg a bit.

Now the cfl I have not used
