need info on color temp
Hello, all,
I just got some light fixtures to supplement the light for my orchids that are in a west window. At Home Depot I was sold some lights that they said were wide spectrum. Well, the guy didn't seem to understand what I wanted, after all. They are apparently considered intermediate spectrum: the color temp is 3500k. This seems to be pretty close to the temp for bulbs rated as warm. If I mix two of the 3500k bulbs with bulbs that are rated cool, will I have enough of the spectrum covered? Or do I need to ditch the 3500k for 3000k? This seems to be a bit hard: there don't seem to be any "warm" T8 bulbs on the shelves. |
