10 k all growth no color, 14k bluer look with decent growth, and 20k great blue look slow growth.

Go 14 or 15k, and add actinic T-5's for the extra blue, when you get the $. X-mas is coming...

and the bulbs i have now that work are one of the 14ks and 2 of the 10ks a friend was over and she had a dog. that dog came in my room and i had my fixture one the ground i was about to hang it. and he pied all over it and on 3 bulbs they were really wet so they broke. i think i will get 2 new 14ks and then find a way to get 2 t5's actinics. does anyone know where the cheapest bulbs are? and where i could buy just 2 t5's actinic fixture?

Man that stupid dog. I didnt actually think that it had damaged the bulbs when you called me but apparently so. do you have any working bulbs to replace the broken ones with or did he pee on those too? If you can look at the 14k Phoenix bulbs, I've heard they are fantastic. Any thoughts on that guys?
