Check out the spectrum on my Amares. You'll see that 35k is not quite as full spectrum as you think in comparison. You know me Six, I'll be doing a grow with it to show results too. Pretty sure there's UV diodes but not sure. There is IR though. I'll check n lyk. Still haven't plugged this monster in yet.3500k cobs are full spectrum, meaning they cover all the same colors as those tiny 3 and 5w chips do.unless those lil chips are below 400nm and above 700nm its a waste of driver power.
900w of cobs spaced over 3 x3 area or 4x4 area will emit light deeper in the canopy than 900w of cobs clustered on a 18" x 24" frame.its simple physics.unless of course your canopy is only 18in x 24in then by all means cluster those cobs lol
5K is the closest K-Temp to mimicing the sun & being full spectrum. Amare filled the gaps in that & punched it up w/ 630's for flower.
