I agree... read the thread ^. 4100K isn't bad, it's just not optimal. The best case scenario with CFL's is having 2700K and 6500K bulbs as they emit stronger light in the red and blue spectrums, respectively. You then use whichever bulbs are best for which cycle (red for flower or blue for veg - but I liked to mix it up... 2/3 red for flower, 2/3 blue for veg).
