3000K or 2700K for bloom?

I'm looking at some quantum boards for a bloom tent. I have some plants in veg now. Which would give better yield or does it matter? The 2700K light is like $25 cheaper... There is a good chance this light will be exclusively for bloom

You are better off with 3000K cri80 and some 660nm monos for extra punch
It's only a 2'x 3' scrog grow so I'm just keeping it simple. I'm buying light fixture and just running that. It will be a 260 watt fixture. I'm not planning to add any supplimental lights.

Every strain is different, there is no ideal spectrum apart from the sun. Some strains prefer more red others prefer more amber. This is why tunable spectrums are best, you can get to know what works best for you.

That's probably a good call. 3000k is just much more versatile.
Well for now I am only using it as a bloom light but later down the road in May pull double duty. And after looking at the spectrum difference between 3000K and 2700K it didn't look very different
