I am going to be retrofitting a dual 250w M58 MH 14000k or 20000k setup. I was wondering a couple of things.
I am curious if first I should purchase the 14000k or 20000k bulbs? I realize that the 20000k has some more blue in it, but I was wondering does that extra blue spectrum mean that I don't have to supplement with actinic? If I go with the 14000K should I supplement with actinics because the color temperature is different?
My long term plan is to keep sps, lps, & some softies. They are absolutely beautiful. So I want to go with the right bulbs to get the job done. So which color temperature would you guys choose if it was up to you? If you have any comparison pics, that would help out a lot.
Thanks in advance!
