I do believe my 3000 k veros bloomed better than my 3500k 3590's. I am getting rdy to switch to 3000k 3590's. Other opinions please?

3000K veros have pretty much the same spectrum as the 3000K crees.
Crees have a tiny bit more blue and green/yellow, Vero slightly more red. But very small differences, the 3590s are also quite a bit more efficient.

Been using 3590 3000k in both bloom and veg for some time now, with very healthy growth and good dense buds

I keep several clones and mostly grow Sativa dominant. I just swapped light builds for this bloom and the last cycle vero 3k's were a bit better. Less leaf. I guess Cutter will fix that with an order.

Any updates?
It looks like I like 3k better for sativa leaning. Not much difference on indica leaning. I'm now looking at adding red as it seems all of the damn led manufacturers are coming out with newer more efficient designs. Now if I just add a controllable red and far red for bloom I'll just update with more efficient cobs later, maybe. My 2 heat sinks are big.

new veros just coming out are more efficient than the 3590s. if efficiency is your game go for new vero or citizen. both are cheaper than cxb as well.

Yea, I saw.

Still waiting for them to arrive at digikey.
Maybe I'll get a new heatsink and new Veros but haven't been growing stuff for months, not even peppers this time.
