does anyone know if full spectrum cfls are as good as using 2700k? i have 6 23w full spec cfls 1600 lumens apiece. i have to keep restarting my grow because after about 6-7 days the stems are shriveling at the soil. from what ive heard, when using cfls 2700k cool whites for veg and then warm...

please take a look at the pics of my plant at week 3, new growth but still very small. i keep a fan on it during the day but it doesnt seem to be getting much taller/ thicker. i rotate it to windows with the best light during the day, and keep it in a closet at night w/ sufficient lighting...
