They make green CFL or green LED. I used a green LED headlight. I use it regularly and do much of my work at night due to outside work hours.

you basically want to make sure you get a bulb where the actual light spectrum is green, not a yellow light that's painted green like partylights.

i was wondering about this too. I am only 2 weeks into flowering and I have been using my Mini Mag LED light with the bottom of a Heineken bottle taped to it. Seems to be green light coming out of it. Hopefully I haven't effed up.

This is from reading and not doing,So lets hope your OK.
I would stop and imo 7-10 days you should know for sure.

I used a green party cfl for a year with no problems, don't know the brand but I got it from home depot. Now I use a green led light hanging shop light and that works well. The brightest I have seen is a green hydro farm 4' fluorescent and it is almost daylight in the room. That's what I'm going to use in my new rooms because I run separate light cycles so one room will be dark when I do my watering.

i've been using a green CFL now for about a year, ...about a half hour before lights on i go in and turn the green light on and do my watering and suchlike.
...i've had zero hermies.

Bin using green cfl's for a few years now and actually have left the damn thing on over their whole night cycle a few times with no issues what so ever. I have never seen painted bulbs before? How can you tell the difference? Will you be able to scratch the paint off if its painted?
