hey all,
I'm just wondering if I need to get different lighting. Right now I'm using 2 13W CF bulbs that have a color temp. of 2670K. I know that 5500K is the closest spectrum to natural sunlight, but do I need to change my bulbs to something that's around 5500K or can I keep using the ones that I am using now?
