are CFLs the same as 'energy saving bulbs'??

[stealthgrowboi]

Iv got some energy saving bulbs which give off a warmer light than my 6400k CFLs.

SO, are energy saving bulbs actually just CLFs?? If so can i use them for flowering?

they look the same, with the spiral shape.

long as they're warm white, you could. can you place one lit up beside an ordinary incandescent bulb ? if it's that same soft orange color it's OK.

energy saving and CFL's are the same thing. Here in europe they are all labeled energy saving lights.
