Can someone help me with the VIOLET...(THE PLANTS ABSORBS MOSTLY VIOLET).PART...Is that the really lightish purple I'm SEEING...IVE SEEN PLENTY LEDS..THAT DONT HAVE A PERFECT VIOLET SPECTRUM THEY CREATE...SOME ARE TOO RED. .TOO WHITE...TOO PURPLE. I for some REASON BELIEVE THIS VIOLET IS IMPORTANT. ..MY LUSH LIGHTS HAVE THAT ...LOOK AT THE PICS... Happy Grows!

Please READ...and note when it mentions BLUE and RED..and refers you to the chart... notice there's MORE BLUE.....and BLUE mentioned MORE THAN RED... probably typos... Happy Grows!
Ive read and read, whole article and all. Did you have a look at what i linked? Its rather interesting...

I cant see how you make the reading that blue penetrates further. Infact search the article for the word penetration and nothing comes up. The pic you refer to is a diagram of absortion of wave lengths of different pigments, and if i remember right it realtes to a in vitro study of dead algae, not to live leaves. But doesnt really matter.

Sure this graph seems to show higher blue levels but its regarding absortion of blue. The way i read this is that blue is absorbed easily (high levels in the chart) and something that is absorbed easily would not travel much further, nor into the leaf, nor down thru the cannopy. Infact it seems like youre making a perfect argument for why blue does not penetrate. If you could tell me more on how to reach your conclusions perhaps? Like, in detail rather than loosely refering to a chart or maybe cite something specifically?

Wait... FIRST..I PERSONALLY have to look up...ABSORBTION SPECTRUM...then contemplate if that means DEEPER or not?...then wonder why RED is soooo weak...?..

" Nor into the leaf" ...I like that. What's the DEFINITION OF ABSORB?... Happy Grows!

So has anyone caught on to TOO MUCH LIGHT .(ENERGY)...( NOT LIGHTS TOO CLOSE..NOT HEAT...BUT TOO MUCH ENERGY FOR PLANT...AND THERE'S YOUR SCIENTIFIC EXPLANATION...SO THROW A MILLION MORE WATTS IN...BUT DO YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH THAT EXTRA ENERGY....NO WAIT.. ITLL FIGURE IT OUT RIGHT?... SMH... Happy Grows!

I willing to bet EVERYONE that's running above 50watts/sqft... would benefit . EVEN MORE...hmmm .. guess I'll have to setup and SEE... Happy Grows!

Ok, then you can please quote where this graph is from?? The "paper" you linked to links thru to another page, something which looks like a school project or homework with absolutely no citations. Can you state anything re the methodology of how someone came up with this? Is there any paper with an explanation of how someone came up with this graph? You seem to be very sure i lie so please cite your source.

It also clashes with the other graph you quoted "optimal plant spectrum" which shows at least some absortion of green wavelengths. Ive seen these graphs been mentioned in relation to the macree action spectrum which was done with different methodology on actual live plants. It would still be great if you could let us know where you got this from and what method is behind it.


Or do you mean im lying about whether it matters to argument where the sciencce is from?

No lying about it being about dead algae or something....but could you answer my questions as well..???.. I have no problem building ... whether we agree with each other or not..but Khan University.. here's the link to the site...you can navigate and will see lots more.. but the section I was quoting was from light and photosynthetic pigments...Happy Grows!

I don't think it's a method...more so just FACTS about plants that photosynthesize... Happy Grows!

I don't think they clash...as long as BLUE...is MORE than RED in the graphs.. Happy Grows!

So because of cutting MAJORITY (half inch) of fan leaf tips...pots much lighter, dirt much lighter...that was RIGHT after a feed...so now each getting 16 oz of bottled water...the GROWTH is THERE... Happy Grows!
