1x250 watt 2700kelvin envirolight IMO, i have had great results in the past. or at least 5 42watt 2700kelvin spiral cfl's. spread the around the plant(s) about an inch away.
LOL as I posted above 2700kelvins (warm) NOT 6500(cool).
That is up to you, height restrictions etc determine when people go into flower. I grow straight 12/12 no veg!
Someone told you a lie, I grew with 250watters for years and you need 6500k for veg and 2700k for flower, a 5000k would have too little red spectrum and your buds would be light, airy and stretched due to continually seeking out the correct light.
Wher do you live? If you live in the UK then you can buy good quality 250watt reflector and both bulbs for about £100 I have one I dont use any more and would be more than glad to sell it to you but the transit of the bulbs is very difficult. I had 3 sets of bulbs sent to me b4 they arrived intact! Greens horticulture have a good range and they are very reliable and discreet, no customer databases etc.
I would only want $120 the bulbs are new, but like I said they probably wouldnt survive transit, so I wouldnt be happy doing it, along with the other obvious reasons. Just google envirolights and you will get a better idea of where to get them! Greens horticulture send stuff abroad check them out!
you could use it alongside a warm cfl (2700k) that would be better than nothing.so what can i use the 5000 k for
In Uk the boxes for the bulbs ahve all the details on them (usually). Yes the light appears yellower/warmer. Gluckokayy.. soo damage control
warm cfl, appear more yellow right?
what would they be called, daylight rated? 2700k?
thiss isss baddddddddddd
I didnt say that, I said, your yield would be compromised and you buds would be small, airy and light!
