Where the hell am i I had know idea they were the wrong spectrum, ive looked at those bulbs quite a few times and they were at least ok. You found out the light spectrum from sylvania's site correct?

I had the chick @ my local hydro store look it up on line. The spectrum is off (dont have it here, ya can find it, I'm sure), and the Lumens are low (same as b4)

a 430 son agro is about the best small bulb out there in my opinion, its got the output of a hps with a enhanced blue spec, thats what i use for veg, you see plants use much more red light than blue so if you compare a plants color response against the light of a halide you will see that it only uses about half the blue light, a lot of bulbs have the little graph im talking about right on their site
