how important is it to use warm spectrum CFLs during flowering?
my plants have bin under 12/12 since last two weeks under white CFLs and still haven't shown sex.
I had posted this in my old thread but no1 seemed to reply so thought i would start a new one.

I am in desperate need of help and do not want my plants to die, if you wanna see pictures you can follow the link in signature. please help me out guys.

Thanks :bigjoint:
 
cant reply on the spectrum but i do know it is very important you have no source of light while your girls are in there dark period [ closet cracks, sneaking peaks,or any other light penetration] will prevent your ladies from flowering. so double check your grow for these things and good luck.

yes, it is important to have warm spectrum bulbs rather than the cool, I use a mixture of both. I have alot of cfls equaling 125 watts. How many watts are you using?

There were several small light leaks fixed those today. I a using 24watt x4 white and 24watt x2 warm. And yes they are always under 2 inches of plants surrounding them.
