No you are not limited to anything. There's all kinds of 2ft and 4ft bulbs. Best for veg is between 4800k -5500k. 6500k is useless and doesn't promote much growth in comparison.

Best bulbs. Htg 5400k and zoo med flora suns

Hyroot,

I am currently looking for the best veg and flower spectrum lights out there, including delving into aquarium lights. Unfortunately I am limited to a 2ft fixture because of the size of my tent. Looked at HTG and found that 2ft tubes are limited to 10,0000k, 6400k, 3000k. That's it. If you want more variety there you need a bigger tent and bigger fixture.
