Can someone please help me decipher the specs of this grow light? Did I buy it too hastily for a 3x3 area?

Brown spots
What is this? It's affecting newer growth, first or second set of fan leaves off thee top of the colas. Also, this drooping, is this stress from the light? This is the center of my tent, and would appear to only affect tallest colas of this plant.

Is that possible to do grow light with Samsung LED strips?
Going deeper into idea of doing the quantum board from scratch but instead SMD LED's there are lots of strip LED options. So I want to ask you guys if I have an aluminum plate with a heat sink and coolers, can I fix those stripts there? Or can I rip them off with a heat gun?

HPS 400w Vs MarsHydro TSW2000 cost
Does anyone know how much less a LED light consumes compared to an HPS? For example, I'm using a 400w HPS, and my electricity bill went up by €40. If I switch to a MarsHydro TSW2000, would it make a big difference? Thanks!

Starting photos indoors for June transplant
Want to start photos on a 14/10 schedule in April to match the lights around June 1st. Can I grow my babies on a 14/10 indoor schedule or could that possibly induce early flowering? I would rather not slowly adjust down from 18 to 14 before Xplant as suggested otherwise

Currently I only got 2 x 50W / 5000K flood lights for veg and approx 150W / 2700K later for flowering. Both LED. Planning to keep lights close to plant - 35-45cm. Do you think its going to be sufficient or should I get professional lights asap?

Seedlings struggling
This is day 10 since they popped out and it just seems as if my seedlings are stunted. I kept an 85w CFL about 10cm from their tops for the first week and then raised it up to about 15cm for the next few days. They had humidity domes. Temp was 20°C-24 in day
