    Using only red an and blue will cause some types of problems. The plant will not be able to produce all of the molecules that it needs to be completely healthy. Remember to eat your vegetables!

    Nice setup and good fabrication and design skills. IMHO, you could go with a little fuller spectrum. Just red and blue is such a limiting diet. Read this, it's a really good education. https://www.rollitup.org/led-other-lighting/563118-astir-grow-led-panel-project.html

    Found GREAT DEAL ON COMBO METER! Is it worth it?
