  • I need some help. What would happen if I ran 4100K lights all the way? or would I need to run 2700K and 5000K or 6400K. If any of you check out my vids you'll see the layout of my set up. I can't find any information on lighting and I just want to know will 45,000 lumins of 4100K in 8 sq, ft. be good for bringing up healthy plants from seed to fruit? if any one can help thanks a bunch. P.S. I'm using CFLs and im going to be growing beans, peas, strawberries and the such.
