the 2700k is what you want. you still need a 6500 in there to add to the spectrum but the plant takes in the 2700k better and uses it more at this point in it's life cycle.

That's the one you want to be using right now, the 6500k is the one to use for vegging. How much are you expecting to yield? Your setup is fine, you're right soft white = 2700k = flowering, daylight = 6500k = vegging. but you need to have at least one daylight in there while it's flowering to give the plant the full spectrum. The more light = more yield.
