@KingRatt instead of a beauty contest figure out what you want in a light first that is important to your grow. Budget, how much you can afford. PPFD in 12 hours needs to equal at least 50 DLI so you can grow photoperiod plants if you want. So you want ~1200 PPFD average at 18" of height. That means for Autos you will be running your lights at ~600PPFD for 18 hours or about 50% power oh your lights.

Then you want to consider the spectrum of the light:

Gus nearly got called Boris (Johnson) because of the unruly mop of blonde hair....

But hubby said he didn't want to walk down the street with a dog that everyone hated.....

I'm just waiting for my hospital call to see how I plan my day......I Could be in the shower...but I know the minutes I get my head under the shower..the phone will go...so I'm hanging it out....
