you need them 2700 bulbs for budding, you need 5000-6000 for veging stage, ( where you are) its good to have one of the others in there too, to add balance, keeping ONE 2700 will make the plant have more offshots and not just straight up. If cost is against ya? just buy one 42watt 5k one.. here is tutorial on cfl, real basic but has the facts straight! https://www.rollitup.org/cfl-growing/107992-tutorial-growing-cfls.html

Not yet.. Going to have some soon. I stared a journal as well. I'll be keeping an eye out on this one though. See how your plants are doing.

I find the smaller bulbs harder to manage. A single 105w 6500k will take both those through veg.

Then switch it out and use 2 105w 2700k for flower.
