thank you tones bro, so a6500k stands for color temperature of the bulb. Basically the lower the number the more red you have in your spectrum and the higher the number the more blue you have in your spectrum.
For growing purposes your ideal setup is to use bulbs with a 6500k rating during the vegetative cycle of your plants and 3000k or lower during the flowering cycle of your plants.
1600 Lumens stands for the actual intensity of the light, the more the better!
You want the daylight ones for vegg. (6500k) u want about 6 of them.thank you tones bro, so a
30w Twist CFL (125W Incandescent Equiv)

I can't find thoes here that I know of yet... I''m gona try to find 60w CFL if I can might go for 36wCFLYou want the daylight ones for vegg. (6500k) u want about 6 of them.
Thats the way to do it.Dude if you are in the US, go to walmart or home depot..
They have a bunch of CFLs that are 6400k.
Theyre available in a variety of Wattages..The ideal bulbs are the 42w "daylight" bulbs.
Or
Order them online... Most lighting stores sell DAYLIGHT 6400k CFLs in whatever wattage you desire.
6400k for VEG
2700k for flowering.
You might wanna throw a mix of the different k rated bulbs in your grow area to 'even' out the light to a color spectrum that is more natural... I tend to add 1x 6400k bulb to every 4x 2700k bulbs.
I read some of that stuff and I kinda already know some of that info, I want to try Hydroponics and Aeroponics
