LEDs: Need opinions current to 2019 technology. Female
Unhappy LEDs: Need opinions current to 2019 technology.

I'm looking for straightforward hands on experience growing orchids indoors without sunlight using only LEDs. Preferably LEDs of today rather than decades past. this is no longer a suspect/new technology so we should have some facts by now, but the internet is convinced I must be growing weed and I can't seem to find anything conclusive in the forum.

So here is my question:
What's the real difference between a WHITE led grow-light and a regular WHITE led light of equal watts/lumins? Why can't I use a 5000-6500k shop light?

For the sake of simplicity I am ignoring all the purple lights out there and focusing on white or white-ish lights, because the purple/pink ones give me migraines and ruin my enjoyment of the plants.
