Hey all, Pakman here.
So I'm working towards flowering 3-4 small plants in a clone tent.
My plan was to use 30x 'household' led light bulbs, 20x 2700k 950lm and 10x 6000k 1000lm. We didn't stock the 6000k so they were put on back order, 2 weeks ago....
Contacted the supplier, they're not kept on hand and have to be made special for the order.
They will be ready for dispatch(a week away from me) in a months time. So six weeks from ordering them.
I can't replace them with cfls, as they don't emit light from the tip. I can't swap them out for a different brand/type of led bulb, as these are the superior as far as lumens per watt.
So, how much additional stretch(i know, strain, nutes, light etc.) would I be facing taking away blue light all together and sticking with just 2700k? I was recommended to run 1:1 2700k 6000k to help contain stretch, but I'd already purchased 20x 2700k so didn't want to change.
Now that I'm forced to either change, or wait a month, I'm thinking change is best. But in which direction?
Thanks for the help guys, very invaluable.
