Seems that you will be covering what mj wants for growth. going to need a lower spectrum for flowering, down in the 440(?) range. Also looks like you will end up paying around $600 for three sets, not including whatever you are going to need to assembly them. For that much you can buy a top quality one already assembled. I spent $295 for a full spectrum 600w on ebay. I am going to supplement it with some sidelighting, and still coming out a lot cheaper than you will.

I doen't seem to be able to edit my posts??
I have the spectrums reversed in last post.
old article but the spectrum is right: http://www.weedfarmer.com/cannabis/lights.php

200 - 280 nmUVC ultraviolet range which is extremely harmful to cannabis plants because it is highly toxic.
280 - 315 nmIncludes harmful UVB ultraviolet light which causes cannabis plants colors to fade.
315 - 380 nmRange of UVA ultraviolet light which is neither harmful nor beneficial to cannabis plant growth.
380 - 400 nmStart of visible light spectrum. Process of chlorophyll absorption begins. UV protected plastics ideally block out any light below this range.
400 - 520 nmThis range includes violet, blue, and green bands. Peak absorption by chlorophyll occurs, and a strong influence on photosynthesis. (promotes vegetative growth)
520 - 610 nmThis range includes the green, yellow, and orange bands and has less absorption by pigments.
610 - 720 nmThis is the red band. Large amount of absorption by chlorophyll occurs, and most significant influence on photosynthesis. (promotes flowering and budding)
720 - 1000 nmThere is little absorption by chlorophyll here. Flowering and germination is influenced. At the high end of the band is infrared, which is heat.

One thing I notice about MOST (not all) LED crusaders on this (and other) forums...they have low post counts...kinda like employees of LED manufacturers who sign up on these forums to give undue hype to their products, in order to generate sales...

Just a suspicion on my part...

I bought led chips from cree and built a 100watt that produced 5 oz from 2 plants last grow. Was in a mini fridge scrog style. Big beefy nugs too! Was a og x lemon haze and it was great. Bein growing for over 6 years and it was probably the best I've done yet. Led works extremely well in small places but I wouldn't use it for larger grows. Best to go with hps for anything over a 3'x3'x3' space.
