I'm planning to buy leds for a custom growlamp. Price woulde be for 100 pieces about 15$ for 5mm 12000mcd (red 630 nm) (blue 470) Thera are also ultraviolet 400nm leds for about 20$. Would these be good or is it a must to get:
Beta-carotene 450nm 480-485nm dual peak
chlorophyll a 430nm 662nm dual peak
chlorophyll b 453nm 642nm dual peak
phycoerythrin 590nm single peak
phycocyanin 625nm single peak
670nm and 700nm for the Emerson effect.

Getting 8-10 different leds is really expensive and I'm only gonna do this if its a must or if the benefits are huge.
