I am currently vegging under 2 45watt 4100k cfls. Vegging is great getting nice growth and low temps. i was wondering if i could also flower with more of these 4100k bulbs? my 2700k bulbs get way too hot.

i've heard that 27 is the best, but fuck it..i mean this is the way i look at it, i think most of the flowering is due to the 12 hours of dark, so maybe the lights wont matter, actually i would think stronger light would promote better growth even at this stage...but yeah i think it might be okay but hopefully u get some more feedback on it

5000-6500K=Veg
2100-3000K-Flower
Good point but for the first 2 days (after popping up), what i do anyway, is 24/0 and for the first 12 hours of the day I use 1 42w 2700k cfl from the top and for the second 12 hours i use 4 23w 6500k cfls on the sides of plant..

The 27k is good for verticle growth...
The 65k is good for bushy bushy bushy...

Knowing this i vertically grow my plant for 12 hours then bush it out for 12..
Gives the plant an excellent start!!!

After that I say do as you like but Im tellin you its an awesome way to start your little ones

Lets just say it wont hurt. It just takes up a plug in... But i Think you should experiment on one of the side branches using that light and see how it effects it compared to a diff bud on the other side of the plant..
