Is Red Led sufficient for growing veggies?

I have a couple Kessil 350 magentas that I normally use for blooming. Can I use them to grow out some tomatoes, peppers, and herbs together? I dont really have much blue spectrum in these lights. Do the veggies really need it?

I would expect tom's to love the red light, you could go check Bumping Spheda's thread which him and heckler73 contribute to, they are both doing tom's under LED.

I think if you supplement with some White LED's or even CFL's the plants will enjoy it immensely, the more light you give them the better, but the Kessil's should do your plants justice. I see no problem vegging/fruiting under an H350M.
