Swapped my grow lights to full spectrum LEDs and saw a big difference

I was using those cheap red and blue blurple lights for my succulents for about 8 months. Plants were growing but they stayed leggy and pale. Switched to a 150 watt full spectrum LED last month and the new growth is way more compact with better color. Has anyone else noticed a big change switching light types for indoor plants?

Swapped out the blurples for a 200w full spectrum about 3 months back and my echeverias finally stopped stretching. The real kicker was the color change - went from that washed out green to actual purple tips on the leaves. Also had to cut my water schedule way back since the new lights dried the soil faster.

Bet that color shift means your light intensity is finally dialed in right.
