Lighting Up Buds

[BioWheel]

I grow phals under lights. Question I have is about the spikes/buds. I can no longer fit the top of the spike underneath my lamp. So I have to position the plant near the outside of the light so the spike can go above the bulbs. Unfortunately the buds don't receive any light there and are in virtual darkness. So, my question is: do buds need light? I see the spikes are growing back downwards but that really doesn't bother me - I just want flowers.

If the spikes do need light - should I just put a second bulb over my setup? I don't want to raise the whole lamp system because then the leaves of the plant will not get enough light. Tough problems.
