Hey guys I'm getting things set up for my first grow. I've been doing alot of looking at quantum board lighting and like it. Problem I'm having is I dont know whether to go 3000k or 4000k. I want to use the same light from early veg. threw flower. What have your experiences been?

3500k is a really popular color temp for indoor horticulture. I think 4000k would work just fine. I use 6500k floros for vegging and have in the past used hybrid conversion bulbs that were in the 4500-5000k range with great results. That was before LED bulbs were a thing tho.

Ideally I would like to go with 3500 but I'm not seeing a whole lot of quantum board options at that number seems like alot of 3000,4000,5000 and 2700. Thanks for your input.
So do you think the 2 different lights work better as you have them or if I were to just get a 3k? Your light looks like a diy what do you all have on there?

I just picked stuff that suited my budget about 3 years ago. I got 4 Cree CXB3070 running at about 62W each on a 120W LP64 CPU sink and 2 even at that time obnoxious BXRA25 from Bridgelux running at 25W ea on an Alpine GT 2.0 heatsink all running on LPC Meanwell drivers and an extra 9-13.5V power supply for fans. Nowadays this would be considered old tech but it's doing it's job just fine until I update it with a "board".
