Is it sufficient for high quality?

Imho I would use the led and cfl for side lighting and use 400w hps as your main light. That would be my opinion

What I meant was 400w hps from ceiling other light side walls. They both can be alot closer then hps and would be better usage that way imho

I run my 400w led @ 12inches my hps Is 20 inches and thats a 1000w hps.

I like your grow,, can a blurple LED grow some dank bud,,, Sure it can,, quality bud sure, but your not going to get a heavy weight nor a big donkey cola with blurple,,
But you can smoke it,, get high, and relax,, try to not get caught up in all the debates ,,
Your plants looks really healthy bro,,
grow with hardware you have,, change it later if you want

You`d be shocked what just red leds can do let alone red and blue..... but yeah you normally end up with buds very close to the stem and its a mold risk.... who`d ever thought some stretch was a good thing ?

Main problem with blue/red leds I find is stealth, if someone sees the blurple glow you are fucked, but 3000k or 5000k looks like normal light.... a hps is pretty orange but people are used to them on motorways and petrol stations so ignore them

but anything north of 100w running pure blurple sets off peoples "ufo" "aliens" strange light, radar people look trying to workout what it is........ thats one big issue with stealth as colour leds can be used to lower the use of water.... but the colour of the light is a risk to the stealth of it

Plus people are growing very good buds with many kinds of lights.... red and blue, checking the X and Y rating of a light seems to give a good idea of what kinda par it`ll put out, and from there we all make our guesses and are happy to blame good results on out skill and bad results on water, lights, genetics and everything else, lol
