I don't think you'll see appreciable gains from CFL side lighting, but that's not what you asked ... So to answer your question ... I would use a daylight spectrum because the 2700k spectrum should already be well taken care of by that HPS, whereas the 6500k spectrum is not yet represented.

So yeah, I agree with your thinking
