should I add this light?

HI everyone...quick q
I currently have two plants 2 weeks into flower in a 2x4 tent under 150w hps. I just bought a 125w cfl 6500k in prep for my next grow. Should I add it to the tent now with the hps? Or is the 6500k nonbeneficial to them during flower?
Thanks

Absolutely it will be beneficial,

I run a ceramic metal halide light which is basically like having a HPS and a 6500K all in one. More light = more growth

As long as you can keep your temperature in check go ahead and throw it in there. Keep in mind you can put that CFL within a few inches of the plant

Thanks.. ill do it. My other option was to buy a lower K cfl bulb for that reflector and put the 6500k back in for next veg.

Plants love 6500K, That blue spectrum really helps them grow.


In my veg tent I have a 150W HPS and 200 watts of 6500K CFL

in my flowering room I have Ceramic Metal Halide (blue spectrum HPS)

I like the mix of spectrum

The blues will add to stem strength, and potency, while also generally helping the plant, red spectrum adds to leaf and flower development and general plant growth. Both are helpful at all times, but each has its preferred time, combining them is GREAT.
