I have a 4ft T-5 floros 2 mixed, 1 veg and 1 flower for vegging. I notice my plants are getting a little bigger so I added a CFL 40watt 2600 lumens will that cfl fuck anything up cuz it only has 2600 lumens I know the more light the more better but it only has 2600 lumens isnt that to little? Isnt it 6k and better for vegg? I have a flower floro in my T-5 already so im thinking they will over come my 1 veg floro and fuck shit up. What you guys think? They look happy tho

I have a 4 bulb T5 an run 2 of each thru the veg with no issue, I wouldn't worry about it. With only a 2 bulb I think that a few CFL's are a good idea, they are cheap enough that you can fool around with the color as you go along.
