T5 replacement bulbs in 14k????

[jessiesgrrl]

I am looking for T5 HO 23 watt, 24 inch bulbs in 14k or higher. All I can find is 1ok, 50/50, or super actinic. What gives? Do they not exist???? The 10k is washing the color out of my zoas...

ATI has a 12k bulb and so does the UV bulb as well. Geisman has a 11k...

But nothing higher than that without being actinic?

This sucks...

Is there a serious problem with 10k's washing out zoas? Does everybody experience this with T-5's?

Everyone experiances it with any 10k lighting... The more atinic the more color "POP" you get... 10k has growth advantages but will seem to wash out some color...
