Im using them. Although mine are General Electric i believe. Is the box your seeing green? If so i think they are rated at 3000K-3500K rating. I have flowered with 4of these being T12's and had presentable results.

Thats all I use in my Veg area, they work great. I use 3 4fts for the top and 2 each on the sides with shop light reflectors. My plants are surrounded. When I was buying bulbs i figured I should buy the ones for plants. They are more expensive than reg floresent cool whites

Has any one ever used Philips Plant&Aquarium bulbs if so how were the results
I have used them to vegetate small plants and they grew very bushy. The guy at my local grow store suggested mixing those bulbs with a daytime spectrum or cool white to give the plants a broader spectrum.

i use them for veg only 6 of them actually but mine are the GE brand plant and aquarium. A wide spectrum bulb like these are the greatest for veg cause the produce a balanced spectrum for the early growth of the plant but there not reconmended for flowering due to lack of lumens 10k lumens per plant is very promising!! Good luck and stay green!!
