You should be using 2700k spectrum lights for flowering those seem more for vegging, but if you decide to use these till harvest let me know how it went, i want to know how they do with those lights.

the 5000 K are no good, swap them out with 3000 K (I don't think they make 2700 K but if they do that's what you want) leave the 6700 K's in) you'll have to scrog to get all the benifit of those lights though.
 
so the 5000k are going get change today, as for the 6700 are they cool or what did you mean (you'll have to scrog to get all the benifit of those lights though)

frmrboi is correct. 2700K is what you need to flower. The 5000-6500K are for vegging. HID works much better for vertical. The scrog is your best bet. Do a site search for scrog and you'll get a plethora of info.

so with these light i wont see any white hairs or buds
Nah man. You'll have buds for sure. The amount of/type of/position of your light has everything to do with the plants actual growth. Most peepz who dont have access or the means to obtain HID lights go with a bunch of CFLz or T5's and up. The intensity of these kinds of lights isnt as great as an HID light. So in order to help achieve the best possible results, you keep your plants shorter and your lights closer to them. No worriez;) Its all a learning process mi amigo..happy growing!
