Should i remove some 6500k bulbs

should i move some of the 6500k bulbs when i start flowering or keep them and add 2700k bulbs. the 6500k bulbs i have are 45 watts and the 2700k are 23 watts.

is there like a ratio of the different spectrums you need to encourage flowering or is it just good to have both?

I'll be using a 200watt cfl 6400k and I want to know can i just stay with that overhead and use the 40wtt cfl with the 2700k spectrum for the sides whwn the flowers appear? Okay to be mixing both??

hmm, you would not want to lose bigger blue bulbs in favor of smaller wattage red ones. 45w blue would give more bud than 23w red.

but keep both if you cant get bigger wattage 2700k for flowering and if heat allows it.

so just spend the dough and switch the overhead after flowers appear? I've got the money just want to do the right thing on my first indoor
 
so does the ratio matter? like im going to add more 2700k bulbs but if i don't have more 2700k bulbs than 6500k bulbs should i take some of the 6500ks out?
