Warm? White? What?

Hmmm? Let's see, I can buy Gro-Lux florescent light tubes for $8.00 to $10.00 each or I can buy Cool White or Warm White for $3.00 each? What do to, what to do? Well, the Gro-Lux cost more so they must be better for growing my violets - right?

Save your dead presidents and go the Cool White and Warm White route. Using a combination of one warm and one cool white in your fixtures provides the light spectrum your plants are looking for. If you prefer a lighting source that provides brighter light (more like natural sunlight), splurge and spend $3.50 each on Sunlight bulbs.
