I was looking for a light to supplement the plants in my window, and I ended up getting a 42 watt 2600 lumen "warm white" compact fluorescent.
I had a hard time choosing between this and a 19W "daylight, 6500K) CF, that only had 1100 lumens. I thought since there is only one light mounted above the window, it would be best to have more power, so the light could actually reach the plants.
Do you think this is accurate? I tried every store I could think of, and there were no daylight bulbs above 19W, not even for higher than the $10 of this "warm" one.
