I'm not sure of this Is what you mean but 6500K is cool blue and 500K is more of a golden colour alot of people use 6500K for growing plants hope i helped.

Lumens is what you want to be looking for the more lumens the more light given off! keep the heat 6500k max then you can place the bulb closer to your plant with out burning it and wasting lumens of light.
