Dimming doesn't change the color spectrum..for that you have to change bulbs bro .
ok ,right , ii must have typed it wrong,, i want to fade two bulbs into each other, like from blue(a seperate bulb)and slowly dim it out while slowly bringing a red (also a seprate bulb from the blue) so i end up with a natural trannsition from summer blue hue to autumn red hue,,,,,,please tell me you understand or in gonna kill myself? Lol

I gotcha...you can do that but it will take separate sockets and separate dimmers but THAT can be done !

i think u be wasting time tryin to fade it in its why indoor works so well cause u can switch wen u like .. if u have to sockets for to seperate bulbs just use both more spectrum the better no ??? dont hold me to it tho.. and a dim. switch will make ur cfl go pop ... happened to one my m8s he had to trow 3lovely ladys away ..
