3000k or 3500k for flowering?

[Ghost of Davy Jones]

Hey friends....

I wanna get a new light and i have finally decided on one, however it comes in different colors. I'm gonna get either the 3000k or the 3500k but not sure what would be better with this type of light. Any input is much appreciated. Thanks all!

With 3500K you can go for the complete Run (Veg+Bloom)
3000K has more IR inside for Bloom.
My last run with CXB 3590's 3500K fits perfectly from Start to Finish

3000k sounds about right nice light

I like 3000k over 3500K for flower. I mix 3000k/5000k for veg phase and flower phase. works great. I use a mix of 3500k/5000k for veg/flower also. I think the 3000k/5000k is a better mix of spectrum than 3500k/5000k

Are the buds dense and tite or big and fluffy with the 3500k. have u grown more then 1 strain with that light?

May i ask what differences you've notices in the buds between the two lights?

If it's just for flowering I'd get 2 of the cobs 1750k and 2 cobs 3500k or 4000k.

im on my third grow/flowering, first lot i gave away as i had to move interstate, but all my buds have been dense and resounous, not sticky. i ve grown northern light blue, cotton candy, holy grail kush and og 13. og 13 so far has performed the best. if i had slightly larger area i would probably get a deecent yeild but im stuck with 2ft x 2ft area. no heat, well hardly any. 200 watts is a bit much for that area but the buds turn out well and penetration is great below screen.

I find the 3000k more density the 3500k more mature branches. Regarding both I also use far/deep red 3w for wake up and night time.
The 3000k more trichs than the 3500k

3000k

I've got the 3500k Vero29 modules in my grow box. But that's because I run complete cycles in the spaces I've got.

Otherwise I'd choose 3000k for flowering. And 5000k for vegetation.

I use temporarily 5000k 90cri for veg and 3000k 90cri for flower...more than satisfied with both

Do you have the spectral graph?

 

[HazednConfused]

3500k 90 CRI

I've noticed each manufacturer has different values for each colour temperature.
