Normally if the package is blue it should be daylight 5000k-6500k good for veg

If the package is reg is is warm 2700k-3000k which is good for flowering

ok i went to lowes and got some 26 watt cfls 6 in a pack . (2700k) for about $12. (lumens 1750) now is that each bulb or all of them together. and i have one 42 watt cfl to but i still dont know if the 42 watt is 2700k or 6500k. any way i hope these will work for my 3 plants that i have. i started them with 2 cfls that i had already. and they are all about 7 inches tall now. these are baged seeds. so if thay die it will not be a big deal. cuss i did not buy them from a seed bank . thay are looking real good. my room tep is about 68 f to 72 f when the lights are on but i allso i to run a heater just to help keep the tep up to and around 68 f to 72 f and my humidity is 35 percent . is the temp and the humdity ok to have a good grow. thank to all that replys. may i remind you that this is all in my basement and its cold down there.​
