After reading this thread and several others like crazy I still can't figure what model should I buy. I'm really lost in this debate 80cri x 90cri x color temp. The vendor I am going to buy has only these three options:
CLU048 1212 3500K H6K2 90CRI bellow BBL
CLU048 1212 3000K M2K1 80 CRI on BBL
CLU048 1212 4000K M2K1 80 CRI on BBL
@CobKits , which one should I choose between this three? I'll use only one of them for veg + flower... Looking at the datasheet it feels like the 4000k spectrum is more complente, but it peaks on 600nm with only 80-90% intensity on the 630nm and even less in the 660nm. The 3000k 80 CRI looks perfect on the red end of the spectrum, but has only 50% intensity on the blue side. But if I understood what I read, the McCree curve states that it is better to have more red since it has larger quantum yield compared to blue.
One can really be lost in all this CRI X K discussion...
