In addition to doing a proper manual whitebalance, make sure that you don't mix light sources with different color temperatures. If you do, hillarity will surely ensue.

Buying inexpensive bulbs of questionable temperature and IRE level at Home Depot is a recipe for disaster.

True but you can always match up with CTB and or CTO. Also different colour temps can be used in some situations.
