One more thing I've been thinking of switching to full spectrum grow bulbs good or bad idea?
Yes, very bad idea. When you look at the back of the box, as baka said, you'll see that it's only producing color in one spectrum.
There's no such thing as a true full spectrum bulb in the CFL world. CFLs work differently than incandescent light bulbs, they get their temperature (color) from a phosphorus coating inside the bulbs that reacts to the UV/IR radiation that the inert/noble gas and mercury create when charged by the built-in ballast.
daylight spectrum is ideal for veg. i vegged mine until they were 20 in. tall,, that strain may be shorter so i would switch to flowering by estimate how big you want the plant to be, as they can double in height during flowering
Those names are very misleading... You should always try to go buy the spectrum graph first, and then the kelvin temperature. If the bulb is too cheap to list those on the packaging, do you really want them (and their mercury) over those little ladies that will be consumed? A bulb break over your grow area (because of the mercury contamination) SHOULD result in a from-scratch grow. I dunno how many farmers are willing to pull their crop, because of a CFL breaking over a plant. This is true about ANY bulb that uses mercury (HPS, M/H, CFL, Florescent, even some LED lights.)
