I am using highoutput t5's I have 6 6500k bulbs, plus CFLS. I found some 4100k bulbs at the hardwear store would these be better than mine for flowering???

look at the bulb carefully...not all t-5 lamps are "high output". (the ones at Wally World sure aren't) You should see HO on the lamp somewhere near the wattage rating...if not...it isn't a high output lamp and will give off quite a bit less light.

but yeah...4100k would be better than 6500K but not as good as the 3000K for flowering.

I am using the F54T5HO 4100k. Question I have is I am very happy with them for the veg sage. I see so many using them for Veg but then change to HPS for flowering I am wondering Why. I was told these were top of the line. I do see there is 3000k and looking into them bulbs but can someone clerify for me this issue and will I still get great flowering with this setup?
