Question What CFL Type Do I Have?
permalink
Aright well i currently have a few seedlings, 2 are Cali Purps in my AG Pro200. My problem si when I use extra CFLs, I can't tell which one to use by name. I have 23 Watt CFLs when I ordered them they were called SOFT WHITE but the light it gives off is yellowish tint (red spectrum I'm guessing) but wouldn't that be WARM WHITE? I also have 14 Watt CFLs that give off a brighter white light (Blue Spectrum I'm guessing) that's kind of blueish tint.

So is my 23-Watt yellowish CFL SOFT WHITE or WARM WHITE?

yes.
lol.
manufacturers call them all kinds of diff. names, the only thing that matters is the K rating. Soft white - warm white are generally interchangable names used for 2700k red spectrum lights, while blue spectrum 6500k rating bulbs are usually labeled bright white or daylight white....

Can you go by the amount of lumen output as well. My cfls are 23 watt and they are rated around the 1750 lumen range
