I am growing weed for the first time.I have set a grow light system includig 4 x 18w/77 osram floura t8 lights.they are 7700k and produces 550lm each so ı have 2200lm in total.is this system good for the vegetation period?
I know that 6500k is good for vegetation but 7700k is bad for it?
Please help me with that.

I think the light would work but you will need other lighting to you got pic of your grow so far the plants might stretch without right lighting well good luck

You will love the results from your florescent,,I will suggest that you use full spectrum day light bulbs ,,,these are what photographers use ,,and are used in film industry is closest to natural light ,,,, Full spectrum has all the color spectrum's,,,you will have bushy plants very happy and use almost no power to do it ,,and you will almost never have trouble with heat from the lights,,you can get a 4 foot florescent with in 6 inches of the top of plant never burned or heat stressed I like them ,,,,I am bout to start flowering my Sour D they hit 4 foot tall other day ,,So I switched them to 12/12,,,,first pic is when they hit 3 foot ,,the next one is at 4 foot,,all my plants have 2 - 6 main upright stalks ,,all fat as a marker,,,,,,,this is my first indoor I started with 50 and gave my buddy 30 to put in his flower room when they hit 2 foot these I let run until 4 foot,,,they should finish flower between 5-6 foot,,,I love florescent,,cheap great lighting,,low heat full light spectrum,,each set of 4 lights 8 bulbs,,runs me 6 dollars and 41 cents a month if vegging 24/7,,I have 2 sets so almost 13 a moth if vegging,,,remember with lights it's not quantity it is quality ,,,use full spectrum and you will love it,,,other lights I use I have 4 65 watt plant lights ,,bulbs are 6,28 each,,,you will not run these all the time or they will grow vertical fast with huge healthy stalks and leaves,,I have a few fan leaves that are at least 12 inches long
