Cxb3590 help with perfect kelvin spectrum

I'm building a 2x2.5 grow box using 4 36v cxb3590 setup. Im new to COB lights. Ive seen amazing results using COB set ups so i planned giving the a try on my small scrog. The plan so far is to use 4 6500k dd bin for veg then swapping them out with 4 2700k bb bin for flowering. Would a mix be better or will this give me my best results? I plan on growing strictly indica.

I would suggest 80 cri chips for veg and 90cri chips for. Flower..

What is your reason for the Cree cxb3590's? They are pretty over priced compared to other COB's that are now on the market. For a small 2x2.5 box have a look at the Citizen CLU048-1212's they are less than $15.00 a COB compared to the best price I can find cxb3590's at of $39.00 each. A nice set up would be 4 1212's on a Meanwell hlg-185h-c1400 driver for a nice 200w fixture for 40w per sq ft of space. No need to mess with different fixtures for veg and flower. Swapping kelvin #'s is what the CFL guys have to do. Just build a fixture with 4 3500K 90cri CLU048-1212's and use it start to finish.

I would run 2-6500K and 2-2700K for both veg and bloom. One light to do both. Just turn the light down to 50% for veg and turn it up to 100% for bloom. I would run a HGLG-185H-C1400B meanwell driver wit5h dimming got best results. Softer is better, lower amps is better than higher amps.
