if you were in veg you could use these as suppliments but about 3 feet away but to be honest i only used these once just for the heat they give out as it was cheaper, what lights have you got????

im going to stick with cfls now concidering im now in flower stage so im going to use a flowering light with the red spectrum and take out the white cfls or could u mix cfls with red spectrum???

Yep you can, a mixed spectrum is always better than a single, if you can manage it.

When you change lamps from MH to HPS or swap 2700K cfls for 5600K that's what you're doing. Adding more red or blue light to the mix depending on what you need more of. So adding another light for more red is what you want to do don't bother swapping one out.

NO

No halogens...they are no good for growing period

5cfls work perfect also with the heat aswell because it stays at 27 celsius and no more than that but being as i put a oil filled radiator in my growroom for the night last night i set it to level one thinking it wil stay warm.....nope...... it went red hot for 3 hours and ended up shrivveling and killing 2 plants lol glad i just about saved 10 that are left

 

[mrbud2010]

as for the lights tho i scrapped the halogen idea lol
