OK...2 ladies:leaf::leaf:
--(4) 100 w cfl daylight w/ aluminum reflector- 50% lumens increase.
24/7,(1) extra low w. fluoro tube i had layin around
-- Bag seed...almost positive they are skunk tho
-- 6 weeks and 7 weeks from germ.
-- Fox Farm soil

The question is, when I go into flowering, should I leave the daylights with the girls or take them out when I transfer over to 2700k temperature lighting? I know the more lumens the better, but should the lumens all be at 2700 temp. or is it ok to mix the 6500's right in there with 'em?

I believe its OK to have a mix spectrum and is probably a bonus to have that. The only things is when you do that keep a 2:1 ratio of 2700k to 6500k if not less. You really want to emphisize the 2700k lights!
Sweet grow keep us updated
