Ok I screwed up and purchased some inferior led lights from Amazon. I have now purchased a luxx 645 pro. By having the inferior leds I have had nothing but small yields. I currently have 6 plants in bloom about 7 weeks in. What will happen if I swap out the lights now? Or should I wait till after harvest?
Ditching led lights mid flower?

Nothing, just beneficial growth if you're putting in better lights. Start em off at a higher height or dimmed.

They will most definitely stress if you toss that light in full blast. Toss it in at half power id suggest

second people grow decent plants with cheap Amazon lighting often
So who determined lighting is your issue and can you provide details and pics of previous efforts?

What is the make and model of the "inferior" led you purchased?

I’ve tested it against 2 accurate meters and it’s read high every time. So if you say you’re getting 200ppfd, you are really only getting about 100ppfd at the plant.
Which lights are you using right now?

Warning about Luxx. They put a halt to selling them immediately from issues. Must have been pretty big and sketchy for them to make a move like that.
what are your par readings
