Default Re: Compact fluorescent lights

I am using 2 4x bulb T5 fixtures, I am using Argomax Bulbs 4 x "Grow" 6400k Daylight, and 4x "Bloom" 3000K

I seem to have good luck bring veggies from seed to bloom without changing over any bulbs. I prefer to run one of each so I do not have to change bulbs, and in an effort to provide a more "Rounded" light source. I figured the sun puts off all the different spectrum's at once, so why not try to recreate the sun light as much as possible. I have found that Tomatoes and green beans grown under fluorescent lights seem to stretch or grow taller vs HPS or MH
