I have a total of 16 Cree CXA1304 COB LED's. Half are 6500k the other 2700k. I planed on using the 6500k for some hydro lettuce, the 2700k was for experimenting. I've never grown peppers before, but was planning on growing Jalapeno. The 8 6500k in total put out around 5700 lumens and the 8 2700k should put out about 4400 lumens.Â
Â
I've done some research and I've heard people saying it's better to flower the peppers with 2700k lighting, some say you can use 6500k the whole time. If I combined both sets and get a total of about 10,000 lumens do you think I could have enough light to cover one Jalapeno plant from seed to harvest? Or is buying more of either 2700k/6500k a better option?, depending on which is better for peppers 2700k or 6500k?Â
Â
Even if no one has experience with these lights maybe some one could clear up my question about 2700k or 6500k for seed to harvest growth. How many lumens/lux/foot candles are needing for peppers?
Â
Any help is appreciated.
