Will it be safe to change lights?

Hello I'm a new growers and the light I'm using is fine for them to grow there 3rd set but I don't think it will work from on out its just a cheap light from Amazon I already bought a new one and I'm wondering if it's going to be fine if I change them? this is the light im using and there's 2 plants in the tent
i bought the vipar xs1500

Yea, start dim. 30 percent or so let em adjust. Then 50 next week, then 75%, and finally around week three u should be able to have your light all the way on. Young plants don't like intense light at first.

Okay thanks

these blue lila light is good 4 vegetative stage 400-600ppfd in seedling stage 200-400ppfd (the old lights when led start was this colors) but in bloom you need 600-900ppfd maybe last 2 weeks of bloom 1000ppfd and we need more red spektrum. in bloom use the xs1500 then. idont like vipaspectra, but the light will be good enough and is white fullspektrum light! you can use it ,for vegetative and bloom and can change it now if you want 40cm away 25-30% maybe!

here is the ppfd map look the light is 2 or 3 times more powerful then the lila blue:
here the xs1500 ppfd map ^^ sry i post the xs1500 pro before...


look more red/orange and yellow spectrum then blue

I would not use those lights unless I had no other option.

In a small grow space, I would go with the Vipar XS-1500 Pro.

(checks the OP's message again) - good you have a Vipar. Is it the XS 1500 or the XS-1500 Pro? I've got the 1500, which I bought a few years back, and the Pro is a far superior product. The cheap lights whose pictures you've posted generate very little usable light.

Simple point - at 12", the PPFD map (light intensity) shows that a tiny square in the middle is 512µmol (micro mol). That's not enough for flower. If you move a few inches away from center, the light levels collapse. Seedlings should be run at 300 and you should get your plants to 800-1000 in flower. Those lights might be good for some plants but can not produce adequate levels of light for cannabis.

How big is your grow space?

If you're in a 2' x 4', I'd add another XS-1500 Pro.

2.5x2.5 and it is the pro
And the only reason I used the Amazon one was bc I didn't have the money and I bought a better one when I did
