After a bit more reading, angelsbandit confirmed I had purchased the wrong bulb...

2700k is for BLOOM OR FLOWERING , 6500k is the VEG Spectrum

Also, im going to find it hard to put another bulb in there...would one bulb be enough for 4 bonsai mothers?

1 20w cfl willl not be good enough for even one mother, bonzai or not. most hardware stores have a Y splitter, so you can get 2 bulbs in one socket. or they make larger cfl's, like 42w. and really big ones. if i were doing this i would have at least 8 bulbs in there.

I took 5 cuttings...but will only end up keeping 3 (one of each strain). So maybe one more 100w bulb? It was just incase one died or I messed up or something.

Do you live in the US? Im from the UK and cant find those y-splitter things...i have seen some grows with loads in there running off one power source. I tried electrical shops, hardware stores etc.

Can you point me in the right direction? Even their proper name.

Cheers dude
