I been growing for about 30 years always use mh - hps ….I read up on the cob lights and thought i'd give them a try so what I have is .. 1 600 w BLOOMBEAST 600B that's hooked up now on a autoflower . The other light is a PHLIZON CREE COB LED 2000W …. Now I normally do clones and seeds under old school shop lights flourecents and I use some hydrofarm light I think is 150 -250 watts and they grow great ..short bushy just like I want .. my question is with the new cob lights can I do clones and seeds if I lower the brightness ? also what do I wanna use the little purple, blue, red lights for this or the cob lights . I have a veg/bloom switch and a stronger switch ..the stronger light on both lights is just bright white ….I really wanna give these new lights a fair tryout but its crunch time I need to get shit going before summer so I can get them out … So this is what I wanna do get my clones and seeds going under the cree cob leds once I get some mothers going I wanna put my 400 mh on them just to keep going so I can get clones …Then move all those new cree cob leds to my big room and push out a quick harvest by june 1st ...my other room is 1000w 600w 600w metal halide with hps conversion bulbs ...hope this isn't to long and confusing

I think you got the wrong type of leds :(
Get white light LEDs. Return the colored ones if you can.

Either make them yourself. (I would/did)
(Cheapest option, pretty easy too)

Or

Buy from
rapid led
HLG
Timber lights
