Does a Red CFL or two help for budding?

I have a 150w HPS going 12/12. I was just wondering if it would make a difference at all to add a red cfl to hang by the plants? Just a curious question. Thanks all...
 
sure, every little bit helps, i'd use blue spectrum though, mixed spectrums produce much better results than just using one or the other imo.
 
like darkdestruction said hps have the red spectrum in them so id probley get 2x20 watt cfls 1 for each side , make sure there cooldaylight 6500kelvins
 
i would put the cfls at the side of the plants and turn your plants a quater every 6 hours if possible or half way every 12 hrs :-/
