6500k cfls

i notice these are way hotter then the 2700k
which is a pain in the ass for me because when i have a seedling the reflector is blocking the fans from the lights being so low
i think there even getting light burns on leaves but the lights are 4-5 inches away they were closer untill i started to notice the 'burns'
does anyone else have this problem?
i could start to flower soon and that will bring the heat down but im only on day 17
i know you can flower whenever but would it be worth it?
first time gettin my feet wet so im happy with whatever i just wanna get started and learn the basics
i also have about a 2 foot height restriction

If your flowering with cfls, bigger plants just waste the plants energy, most of the cfl light isnt gonna make it far at all, Short plants are better with cfl, in my opinion. Flip em to 12/12

hmm that does make sense
if it does get big i plan on putting lights on the sides so it can get more light

also if i mix up the lights like say 3 2700k and 1 6500k will it change how the plant grows? or is it best to stay all 2700
