1. I am about to pull the trigger on some HLG quantum board fixtures. I intend to use them for dual use, veg an flower, for a 3x3 space. For combined use, should I get 3000k or 4000K?

Probably getting this or similar.

With that spectral distribution at different kelvins, i would go with 3000K tho 3500K would be awesome if they had one.

Spectrum choice since it needs to be all in one:3k, like other said, too bad they don’t have 3500k


Best temps for leds: 78-84f
78-80f without co2
80-84f with c02, led’s plants love c02 since they are using a lot of par and normally I taking a lot of c02/nutes also. I suggest co2 option if it was me , at least for flower time, it that also requires good sealing of the room or it’s quite hard to get co2 to work well or it’s expensive

3000K is fine. Many veg under HPS successfully, which is around 2300K.
