to save yourself the heavy reading about plant photobiology, you can always go to a local store that sells fluorescent bulbs for this purpose (those that are labelled as recommended for plant growth and flowering - "long day") and read what the label says about their spectra, the specific spectra that makes the plants think it is daytime. sorry i dont remember.
