    Why no blue light in some LEDs?

    Considering this budget one to add to my arsenal, but I think I'm not understanding why there's no blue light listed as part of their spectrum; isn't that a necessity for chlorophyll formation? https://www.viparspectra.com/products/xs-series-xs2000

    Two months veg...then went 12/12 ten and a half weeks ago and I see not one amber trich...actually I still see a few clear ones, but most are milky.

    The fan leaves?

    I see lots of posts about how to cure the buds but what about the fan leaves? How do we deal with those? Is it a good idea to put them in a brown paper bag and let them cure in the attic hanging the bags from the rafters like I see some people do with herbs? Thanx
