Default screw in PC bulbs

I am looking for screw in style PC bulbs. I need them for a new hood I am building, I was thinking about getting the 23w Philips daylight bulbs but I am looking for a higher K rating in the same size and similar price range. dose any one now where I can buy something like this? I do not want to buy the coral life bulbs.

Good luck trying to find higher K than 6500K. I have looked all over locally for something like that and found nothing.

Going to build the canopy like you were describing to me at the house?Try calling Acklend's,they carry the bulbs cheap(I think they have the 6400k bulbs)6500k should be ok for growth.

That is the plan after work this week I am going shopping for all my new plumping and lighting supplies. I will call Acklend's and local hydroponics shops.

*I will post pics of the new set up as I make it.*

The Philips bulbs are cheap at Home Depot. If you don't want to buy Coralife then they're your best bet.

If you are looking for 6500K go to Lite-Mor in the west end they have them there
