debating on spectrum

[LegoZ81]

Bill are the LEDs marked with bin information?

I would say focus on that white light a lot less and focus on the blues, white light is the combination of all colors which means there is only a little bit the corals will actually use. If im not mistaken corals actually use light from the blue wavelength much more than any color so crank up the blues on the LED's (slowly). Right now I only run the whites at 30%, and ill probably keep it that way as I turn the blue and royal blue LED's up more and more every week. what im saying is supported by the graph that was posted earlier on because if you noticed there was a peak at the blue spectrum.

Very true when it comes to Photosynthesis the 420-470nm is best were the 450 nm AKA Royal Blue is the sweet spot between Chlorophyll A&B

Totally agree adding a few Neutral Whites is not a bad idea to tweak the colour as it covers both the red and green...Personally I prefer to add these separately or go with a warmer Cool White as its very close to the Neutral White.

As of now I think we are the only ones who mark the Bins of the LED on the back of the star...Personally I never liked the "box of chocolates" were you dont know what you are going to get.
