I would appreciate assistance. I am wonder what the spectrum peaks (nm) are for the 7 channels of my Hydra 26: UV, Violet, Royal Blue, Blue, Green, Red and Cool White
Where am I going with this? I am trying to be logical with my decisions as to which channels to emphasize. Thank you

Haven't found any "real world" useable spectrums but you can piece some info together.
Thing is nm peak changes by "bin" and "lot" variations so "exact" nm can really only be determined by your light..

Example for CREE xp-E2 blue
520-535 xp-e2green ect...just look at the data the data sheets.
You guesses will be close enough for the most part.

The AI lights are easy... Turn all the blue channels up, the red and green low, then add as much (or as little) white as you need to get the look you like. The BRS AB+ settings are a pretty good place to start. Then it's just a matter of dialing in the intensity to hit the PAR levels you need for what you plan to grow.

If you haven't already, watch this. It will get you started down the right path.
