CFL Questions

I am currently using a 4 foot florecent light for my first grow. I would like to add a few CFLs to the grow to help light reach the lower foliage.

I went to my local Wal-Mart and I searched through a bunch of different CFLs and not one of them had a Kelvin rating on the package. My questions are:

1.) Where can I buy CFLs that have the Kelvin rating on the package? Especially the lower Kelvin rating CFLs needed for flowering.

2. ) Where can I buy the actual socket/plug cable. Walmart didn't have any light sockets with cable and plug?

3.)Wher can I purchase the splitters so that I am able to use 2 CFLs on one socket cord?

yeah, trying to find just the right thing at Wally's is a pain, esp. with cfl bulbs and their eqt.
Any Hardware Store is the answer (ACE and Home Depot)... I used to get stressed just walking in to these shrines to people that know what the fuck they are building, but then I started growing and now I'm like an obese chick on her period in a chocolate and vicodin store. oh, and some cfls seem not to have the rating (some actually don't), but if you look all over you might find it in a random place. Do not buy anything from a hydro store if you dont have to, by the way.
