Wondering If these lights are OK?
    #27072670 - 12/04/20 09:41 PM (3 years, 1 month ago)

Hey everyone this is my first grow, I have done a good amount of reading and am feeling really good about how it is going. I started off going with cakes thinking I would do a fruiting chamber but decided to go in the direction of shoeboxes so I just shredded my cakes and setup boxes according to the TEK by ShaperDreaming.I read that 6500K daylight CFL bulbs are the most commonly recommended but Walmart no longer carries CFL bulbs so I just grabbed the 65 Watt grow lights (pic attached). They are a red/purple light and I am wondering if they will work or if I should just go grab a normal daylight bulb from lowes. Appreciate the input, happy holidays!

any light will work, but some work better than others.
I've never used lighting except for ambient daylight and that works as well.

Don't overthink lighting. The biggest difference you'll find in the category of lighting in the mycology world is the difference between having some light and having none.

Appreciate the feedback, I'll take it easy and just see what happens, seems like I'm not gonna ruin my grow or anything.
