Where illegal to grow, you should at least use white LED if it's visible, purple may save you 25% tops, but it's not equally efficient for all plants, for some you save nothing.
White LED is often also more efficient, so although it makes poorly utilized green light, you never gain the theoretical 33%, and white is cheaper to buy.
I don't think purple is very relevant anymore, unless you are a professional grower, with crops that are tested for it.
I've heard stories that the make helicopter flyovers here to spot grow lights, IDK if they are true or not. But 9it may be something they are "trained" to look for.
Regarding Finish mentality in general, I can't comment on that, but clearly you've had some very bad experiences. I hope you don't get offended, but you might want to seek help processing some of those experiences. It seems to be wearing you down a lot. I'm not saying it isn't true, I'm just saying it sounds like you aren't handling it well.
I've been growing since ~06-07. So to put it kindly, don't try to teach your father to fuck.
The purple was one of the earliest COB-leds, and it was on my balcony exactly because it would be of no use in my tents. It was marketed as a 200W LED but the actual draw was like 86W. Which isn't unsurprising with the early LED's but as this wasn't from an online vendor but a trusted Finnish gardening store. I bought it in like 2010, when panel such came on the market some years later didn't really exist.
I'm currently running the TS- and FC- series lamps from MarsHydro. Highly recommended.

2.8 µmol/J PPE and Max 2.5g yield/watt. Giving a high PPF of 840umol/S
My point is that Just because they saw a purple light, they thought they'd have the right to invade my privacy. They happened to be right, but not for the reasons they had.
I'm considering doing a bait at some point but it would mean taking a break from actually growing anything illegal, and I can't afford that rn.
Technically I am a professional grower insofar that I make most of my money out of it and have been doing so for severally years.
No I really am, because I explicitly mention my therapist.
So that does come off as kinda condescending from someone who didn't manage to even read through the reply they're so worried about.
Pls trust that I know my mental health better than you and the thing right now affecting it the most negatively is people aways commenting some highroading shit like that while making completely baseless assumptions.
With similar quality reasoning I could use that sentence to infer you've personality disorder.
So let's not, shall we?
I'm not saying it's true, but you seem like the sort of ironically ignorant person who thinks their baseless assumptions are for some reason worth something or of interest to anyone. No offense. (You can't take offense now because I said no offense.)
That could be regarding another issue. You stated you had blackouts and if I remember correctly also psychosis, that would be a psychiatrist treating that.
Try to read your comment I responded to again, you criticize basically everybody around you, including people you call friends.
So my suggestion is to see something OTHER than a psychiatrist.
Feel free to completely disregard, it honestly makes no difference to me, I just mentioned it, because it could look that way. But it could also just be that you were in a bad mood when writing that.
I'm sorry, I know you mean well but the constant offering of "solutions" I've thought up and tried more than a decade ago sort of triggers me.
Fucking bureaucracy sucks, not you.
Feel free to completely disregard the bit where you're criticising me as if my criticism was bad and yours wasn't.
Youre genuinely highroading and making assumptions. I'm not upset in any way to some random person online. What I'm writing is 100% neutral and any hostility is something you're inserting into my text. Something that does not exist in it.
I can't help that you can't read neutral text in a neutral way.
It could be that you've always been really bad at relationships, and thus try to compensate by thinking you're capable of advising random people online? (Please read that with a condescending and comforting tone.)
Psychiatrist aren't therapists. They can be, but most are psychologists by training and psychiatrists are MD's.
You don't even understand the basics of what youre talking about.
You have no idea how many doctors I've met, and you completely disregard the bit where I mention that every single other Finnish person — no matter their education or profession — do not believe me.
Me taking advice from you would be akin to a professionally chef taking advice on cooking from a overexcited 10-year old.
Please stop the asinine highroading. Seriously. It's not working. You shouldn't try to pretend to be in a position to advices me. You're not.
For one you don't even fucking apologise for your bullshit assumptions. No. You try to give more bs advice on shit you know nothing about. Ffs.
