use 2 or 3 4 ft tube lights not just compacts and get some warm and some cool white a combination works best for me also then get 1 or 2 compacts

6500K cfls for veg
wtf this forum is really starting to confuse me on cfl lighting. I read the "things to know about lighting thread" and it says cool white is for veg. and so does the second poster. But few other threads like the CFL growing guide says to use day light or 5000-6500 k... so what is it?

Most Daylight/Cool White CFLS are 5000-6500K. Same thing.
