A Common 6500k CFL?

i i got a 4 pack of 18 watts at lowes for $6 the 23 watt are $15

Man i'm just going to mix the spectrum up and get as much light as i can into my Rubbermaid grow box and grow all the way through that way.

i've found that daylight bulbs at are a 5500 spectrum sometimes...

nebody else notice that as well?
my grows seem to working fine with them tho...

I see a lot of 5000k bulbs that are billed as full spectrum and I wondered how well they would do...

the're easily found where im from... any local hardware store (lowes, rona, home depot) carries them. You got the warm or soft whites, what you want is the "cool white" or "daylight" cfls. The daylights are rated at 6500 kelvins and i belive the cool whites are the same. you can get a 40w(actual wattage, 150w equivilent) cool white cfl that puts out 26 or 2700 lumens, for around 10$. the 40w soft whites put out 2720 lumes!
