The Kelvin rating of the bulb does not really matter, as long as it is under 10000K. Any combination that you (visually) like will work for the plants.

I prefer to use 6500K bulbs (Daylight bulbs) because of their crisp whiteness.

so is better if I change the natural one to daylight? or is OK if I just leave them like that?

As I mentioned, it will not make a difference to the plants. It is simply a matter of aesthetics. If you like the look of Daylight bulbs, you can change it. If you like the look of the Natural bulb, then keep it the way it is.
