hello again!

Does the Daylight or Coolwhite or White warm tube generate heat?

Thanks

Claude

| My shelving unit is 19 3/4 inch wide so I will be able to put 2 shoplight

|
| I heard many thing about the kind of fluorescent to use, some said to go

using

|
| Thank you very much!

| | It depends on the ficture. I buy whatever is cheapest at Home Depot
(they

others
| | are barely wider than the two tubes.
| |
| | So, according to your experience, a mix of CoolWhite and Warm White is
| | better than a simple Daylight?
| |
| | I can't say that yet. I started using the mix this year, and most of my
| | plants are new. A few are sending up inflorescences, so we'll see.
