Blue & White Lights Clashing Spectrums? (fluoros)

[RaZoR_2004]

I have a Matsushita Blue Actinik 2' Fluoro, and i have 2 4' 36W Cool Whites, i have the blue about an inch away and the whites are about 1' away ( i need to re-arrange my cupboard :S ) anyways, the whites over power the blue in brightness, will this affect the spectrum of light that the plant is receiving?? i have other lights i can add, Cool Daylight 18W (100W output) CF, and also Warm Daylight CF 18W (100W output).

The overpowering thing is nothing to worry about. The more light the better!!! Put those cool whites as close as possible. My veging plants often touch the flourecent tubes with no problems at all. As for the CF's... you might as well put 'em in there too. Cf's are proven to successfully grow plants, and the more light the better so yeah, chuck 'em in. Watch the heat though, coz unlike long tubes, the heat is concentrated in a small area.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Good luck in your growing!
