Default 5000k or 6500k for vegging?
permalink
Just curious if there is a big difference in using 6500k or 5000k for vegging?

Right now I am using a few 23 watt 6500k CFLS.

I have been looking for 40+ watt CFLS and all I can find are 5000k spectrum, if I use this will this be a problem?

Thanks

Higher the better. Although.. higher, the HOTTER. Careful! I'm vegging 2 seedlings in a pc case w/ 3 23's @ 5500 with 3 high volume fans and the temp still got to 91 this am. I yanked a bulb, so now 2. Neither seedling stretched at all, though. Both are very stocky and healthy. Stretch should indicate not enough light, so.. I bet you're fine in the 5K's.
