florescent lights....

so i have a 4 foot florescent light..... in it, it has 1 gro lux bulb, which is purpleish, and 1 t8 4100K bulb which i think was more of a cool white.... my friend told me the 4100k is no good.... and that i should switch it to a 6500k or more of a daylight "blue light"

any opinions ?

thanks

Yep, 6500K id great for growing and 4100k is not. And with florescent lights you'll need about 4 of those.

im actually using a flouresent that is 2 feetlong called a Agrosun 24.... it seems to work well but was the lights originally for a reptile?

agrosun 24, what colour light is that producing?

anyone know anything about the purpleish grolux bulbs?

I have them too.. says 3400K on the web.. and i'm assuming purple means red and blue.. my clones i had under 6500K sunblaster T5HO they were much brighter green. The ones under the 2 4' gro-lux 40w 3400K bulbs were a very dark green.. and the sunblasters seemd to grpw them faster... although u think the mix isnt bad..

yo im growing two short riders in a very small grow box about 20'' long 18'' high 10'' wide, im using a 230v 3400K floursent light so far the plants are both coming along well im using lst on them and one has gone into flowering i was wondering if i would have 2 change the light or would i be ok with the one im using as its such a compact area? some one get back 2 me
