10 6500k 3 2700k GOOD OR BAD?

Hey guys I'm currently on day 4 of 24/0 with 3 young girls and have 10 23w 6500k and just added 3 23w 2700k today. Just wondering if the 2700k is even needed now, and if the 3 are even making a difference? Would I be better off with just putting 6500k back in their place? Also, the room stays around 80-85 degrees 24/7, is this a comfy temp for them? Thanks guys

I know in flowering, people swear by mixing,(more) 2700k than 6400k. i believe
2700k has less benefit in veg, than the benifit 6400k adds in flowering.
Just add extra 6400k in veg.
Then again, i really don't know but just my
opinion.
I've never mixed, but in flowering, i would of tried it, but i just switched to hps.

The 2700 helps in veg, use them all. 85 is too hot, get that down to 80 tops.

The 2700's don't do anything but add heat to your room! Are those clones? they must be since you know they are female! 13 100 watt bulbs sounds like "overkill" at this point. If they are not clones, you should probably give them a 6 hour break too! Heat will only hurt your outcome!

The reason for the 2700k and 6500k is because the plant will absorb both warm and cool light spectrums right? Yup they are clones, good guess! 10+ cfls for 3 plants is not overkill! I would like more, the more lights to leaf ratio the better. Just to insure a full amount of light to be absorbed. And as far as the 24/0 I am only doing it for a week, then either 18/6 or 20/4. What is the recommended humidty level?

I veg using two 55w 6500k and one 55w 3000k bulb and have great results.

There's a good thread on the importance of mixed light. It "is" afterall what nature provides. Mostly blue in spring with some red, gradually moving to 50/50 in mid-summer, and then shifting to mostly red in late summer as harvest approaches.
