I've been using this set up for several years now to start seeds and grow on young plants.
I have 2 shelves that each have a twin t8 grow light above, finally 1 of my bulbs has gone and looking at a replacement i found the pictured red tube, it's 4ft so should fit.
My question is will it be OK with 1 white and 1 red light ?
I've just seen they also do blue,would I be better of replacing all bulbs with 1 each blue and red?
Any advice welcomed thank you
P.s I have started chilli's, peppers and aubergine, incase anyone was going to ask

In a multi light seedling setup, I have used white and a couple different yellows, ie, "soft lights".

Everythings packed away right now and I'm at work or id tell you the value of the lights.

I currently have white lights, but I need to replace 1 bulb, it's nearly £10for 1, but the blue and red are only £5 each, so just wondering if I'm OK mixing the two and which I should do with the white, blue or red?
