CFLs....warm/coolwhite
i know coolwhite is the best u can use for veg and warm for flower.....but since i dont really wanna buy both types for differnet times of growing i would like to know if its possible to do a whole grow w/ warmwhites (mainly cuz i dont c any coolwhites around here
).....i mean i think either way it equals out i think...like a ton of nodes but shittier flowering cuz its not right spectrum....or a little less nodes but the right spectrum of light for flower so its at its best (besides HPS lol)
so is it possible to grow w/ only warmwhites?

yea of course it's possible...but your plant will be significally smaller using them rather than cool whites

It would grow, but it would more than likely stretch. I recommend you just breaking down and buy the cool whites
. 4 cool whites and 4 warm whites altogether at wal-mart is only $32

I currencly have 4 seedlings, about 1 inch or so tall, in a wardrobe.
There are 2 20w cool white CFL's and 2 20w warm white CFL's.
They are stretching towards the cool whites.

place like walmart and such dont usually carry cool white compact flourescents (at least in my are they dont). I've only seen warm white CFLs, but i used like 300 watts of warm whites and my plants were hella bushy. so, i dont think it makes too tremendous of a difference.
