Who said LEDs can't grow buds? High Lights on the left, QB324 V1s on the right.
It looks like the QBs might have the edge
The High Lights do spread more light than the Quantum Boards - which concentrate a little more light in the middle - so looking at the bud structure between each plant, it seems the QBs benefited from the HL's overlapping light more than the other way around. Or perhaps it's because the HLs are running at 345W and the QBs are running 405W to the boards.
Blah, blah, we'll find out after harvest
