They seem really yellowish... the room took on an amber look when I turned them on... I thought they were supposed to have heavy blue spectrum, not red...???

daylight is 6500k look for that
they will grow but your pinset will be effected and the fruits might not be as numerous

incadescent give off too much heat. flourescent fixtures are $10 less. look at the 2nd pic noobie posted the color temp is what you need to look for. not weather or not it 'looks' blue.

Yes, their is a bulb form for daylight. They are compact fluorescent lights [CFLs], the spiral oness. They are readily available at Home Despot and others. Like has been said, get 6500k.

Pretty much on the same subject, noob, what wattage do you recommend for say, a 56 liter monotub. I've heard shroomies don't have a need for a whole lot of light, just some at the right spectrum.
