Quick question for the t5 guys

I wanna run my blues (2 bulbs)
From 12-8 ( 8 hours)

And then my whites (4 bulbs)
From 1-10 (9 hours)

You guys think its to much light?
Basically all 6 bulbs will only run for 7 hours

IMO it should be the opposite, Have your blues come on an hour or 2 before your whites, then stay on an hour or 2 after your whites turn off.

like..
12-2 blues
2-8 whites & blues
8-10 blues

I don't get home from work till around 10 so my schedule goes like
3-4 blues
4-11 whites & blues
11-12 blues

I have 2, 120W dimmable LEDs.

Only my opinion - but I hope I was able to be helpful.

I run blues 30 mins before and after whites. 1130 to 930 blues. 12-9 whites.
I thought you were heavy into blues for a while. I like that i can change the color temp on my lights. Keeps me going for a different look.
