you can use 6400K but the bud density and structure might become less tight and more airy. Which my make your yeild suffer... but it can be done. You will still harvest something good.

I encourage such experimentation and appreciate posted results. But the marketing of borrowed genetics and reputation without permission, for a high profit, crosses a line. It saddens me that I even need to come here and point this out, again.

the 6800-6400 k color bulbs actually make tighter bud, not looser.
