Im talking about taking an actual light meter, going outside and taking a reading to see what that spot is recieveing as far a lumens.
I have flowered with CFL's, HPS, The sun, HPS- MH combo, and have vegged with a wide array and combination of lights.
Spectrum matters more than the amount of light you are throwing at a plant...
And i definitely Do Not believe in the theory that Bigger is Better.
We're on the Club 600 thread. No one here believes bigger is better. I know there is a threshold where more lumens do no good. And yes, spectrum is very important. I recently learned that the red and blue spectrum are more efficiently used by cannabis, BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT AVAILABLE IN THE QUANTITIES THE REST OF THE SPECTRUM IS. This led me to run dual spectrum equipment. WOWZERS. And yes, that was my LUX reading.
