I'm wanting to build a 4 or 5 cob light just for veg, I see most peeps using the 5000k version but wouldn't the 6500k be a better spectrum? And maybe a higher bin too?

a lot of people think too much blue is a bad thing (bleaching, inhibition of processes, etc)

remember a 5000 and 6500k cob is really not the same spectrum as the same color in fluorescent

experimentation is in order.

those charts are pretty small but it looks like the cob is much broader spectrum than a t5.although its tough to compare because the t5 chart is for 2 dif t5 lamps and both lack in the 550 to 650 nm
