Color Temperature (Kelvin)

When it comes to feeding light to your plant, the color temperature of your bulbs is important. This is measured in Kelvin and typically ranges from 2,000K (warmer) to 8,000K (cooler). During vegetative growth, plants tend to prefer higher Kelvin values with more blues and whites. Once flowering begins, lower Kelvin values, made up heavily of reds and oranges, are ideal.
