So just so we're clear, you found that you got more trich formation with the Blue dominant lights, while retaining density/mass? Or did it increase mass as well?

Would you still reccomend a more "traditional" red dominant LED panel that uses like an 80/20 split of 660nm red's and 460nm blue's, for vegging, and then switching to this blue dominant panel for flowering?

If that is the case, if you were to do it all with just one panel in the same room, then couldn't you do this with a panel of approx 50/50 split 460nm blue / 660nm red? During Vegging, you shut off a bunch of the blue's to get your 80/20 red/blue split, and then during flowering, you shut off some of the red's to get a 40/60 red/blue split? Would this be ideal then? This would also increase light output during flowering which is ideal if anything correct?

Also are you a fan of just using dual band lighting in the 460/660 range and forgoing any other wavelength's for veg and flower?

I'm trying to formulate some plans for some DIY LED panels I'm making for a friend's 8 pot hydro setup that I intend to run fully off LED. I appreciate your input or any one elses as well! thanks.
