This high intensity 5,500K lamp with peak emissions in the blue and red regions serves to maximize the photobiological process in plants. The emission spectrum closely resembles the absorption curve of chlorophyll-A, promoting maximum photosynthesis, ideal for planted aquariums and terrariums. Also great for shy fish species such as Dwarf Cichlids, Discus, etc. Can be used in conjunction with the Ultra Sun or Tropic Sun lamps for maximum light output. Effective up to 10,000 hours..
for vegging u want a 6500k and for flower u wwant a 2700k 5500k have very little effectiveness on the plant prroduction of mj plant they also look like they have rreally bad stretch which could be if in fact the lights are 3 or 4 inches away they can tell they arnt getting the right spectrum so they are stretching to try and find it also I.R. light from the uv-a and uv-b could be harming the plants reptiles and underwater plants need it but land plants do not ive herrd it can be like a poison to them in outdoors it dosent effect them that much because there is such large amount of norrmal light that the uv-a and uv-b dont really make any difference but when using a bulb like that thats all it has is the uv lights with a little normal light thats why u get those blue and red hughs in the photos almost like u were using leds if i were u id go to home depot or a store like that and get some cfls day light which is 6500k for veg and soft white which is 2700k id probly use 2 26watt bulbs per plant untill they start getting big then add more lights....but thats my opinion
