ano yea i see its already up on general marajuna : good 1s mr.issues and pauliojr

Dam it!! Thanks a Lot guys. You put a Gun to my head and made me buy a 400 watt High Pressure Sodium light today.. Now I have (3) 27 watt (100 watt) daylight cfls, (1) 46 watt (150 watt) soft white cfl, and (1) 48" T-5 light, and my 400 watt HPS light. I would think these lights should do great now. I put the HPS light about 2' above my plants for right now until I find out just how hot this thing gets.

You guy are confused but not, too many opinions but anyway
Flower red spectrum 2700K
Veg Blue spectrum 6500k

dude are you serious? you need more RED light for flowering.. BLUE FOR VEG..

what would happen Theoretically if you used A light in the red spectrum while your plant is still in its Vegging stages?

u dont need the certin spectrum....its just better if u do. its like 8 hours or sleep vs 10 hours of sleep

fer shur bro.

i am using mixed cfls i have 2 [ 18 inch T8 fouro tubes] 2[ 23 watt soft whites] and 2 [26 watt 6500k] all providing for my 3 lil ones, i think the wide spectrum will help out alot any suggestions send a message to me but ya i think you should mix up the bulbs from what ive read it helps alot, they call it "old school" CFL growing haha i also just ordered

1 x Sunlite 45W CFL Bulb: 6500K (Vegetative) Standard Base
1 x LED FAR Red 660nm Grow Light 1W - Standard Base 120V

im gunna mix those in also i think it will work out nice
