I and a few other folks I know use the special t5 bulbs that Beezleb linked to.
The guys at my local store recommended them to me and they have used them for a few cycles now. I'm in my second cycle having used these lights to do watering, etc and no problems.
Jwizzle, some people such as me run their lights at night to keep things cool - but they might not be able to work at night. What I've realized that it is very easy to be negligent of outside light sources when the green lights are on. I have to yell at my people to not answer their phones when they are in the room with the greenies on and its super easy to open the door and not think anything of the outside light because the room is also lit.
Plants respond to certain frequencies of light, green light is not used by plants. That is why they are green, because that is the color that they are not absorbing, they are reflecting that wavelength.
Your lights J wizzle may have been the cheaper bulbs that modify white light and attempt to filter out other wavelengths. This might not be perfect and may leave a bit of leakage at certain wavelengths that the plant responds to. Did you use the sassy little sylvania bulbs such as those linked?
LEDs and the special t5 bulbs EMIT only light at the proper green wavelength. It would be highly irresponsible to market a bulb as being one that doesn't disturb flowering cycles if it indeed does.
