I also use it in full spectrum mode from start to finish as well......
Just seems to speed process up a bit
But u can fiddle w it man and figure out what will be best for your situation......
But no joke man
I cant say enough ab my light
I love it
Quiet, runs extra cool, had no issues at all.......and it actually freakin works great bc my plants are staying beautifully healthy
Just make sure u have some calmag
These light are very strong
Stronger than almost any other light out there w same components or in same class anyhow......whatever u decide man just always remember
W led
U get what u pay for
Its better to dish it iut up front one time for a decent to good quality product and get it over w at first and u wont have to worry ab it again and u know ur w a company who stand bhind their product if theyll let u return it after 90 days of use
And offer a 5 year warranty
So whats to lose bro
Give it a try
Ull be glad u did
