Hey Kamel, first I just want to say that this is an excellent thread that you started with some great information. I just started my first grow, a single plant, using CFL's. I like the CFL idea because I want to experiment a bit before I invest too much more and wiring up stuff to my closet sounds like more work than I care to do. However, I looked at the lights that I purchased and, although sold as daylight lights, they are only 5500K instead of 6500K. Is that going to be a problem, do you think? I have plenty of 2700K lights for the flowering stage, but I want to get there with as good of a vegging stage as possible.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks a ton.

Hed.
