27 W daylight CFL vs. 40 W soft white CFL

[LinhT]

I've read through many of the posts on artificial lighting for orchids here and on other orchid forums trying to figure out which CFL will work the best. Unfortunately, the more I read the more confused I get.....

So here's my idiot question. Which CFL spiral bulb will work best to provide supplemental lighting for one phal.

1) 27 watt (100w incand. equiv.) daylight 6500K

2) 40 watt (200w incand. equiv.) soft white w/ no "K" specified

Any info would be appreciated.
