1. Don’t know. Not trying to be either. This the internet man. Guess basically they both have their place. At end of day I can’t touch you from here and I’m trying to facilitate a learning experience. I find most time if I tell someone they acting like a broad or hoe it goes further from my goal.
2. Pretty much yes. I don’t know why one would only want to know part of the equation when there’s much more to it all. What I see and what’s being emitted and actually used by the plant are two different things. I’m just that partial to having as much info as I can to make a educated decision.
3. I would have looked around more or asked around more. I did see you say you were on your lunchbreak....whoo whoo whoo...but...
I still wouldn’t have wasted MY time comparing lumens and typing it out like that. Then again that’s just me.
4. Nothing until you put more Lumens=more par. Besides that I was just trying to get you and others to not waste time on frivolous things.
If I’m wrong in any of these points I would like it to be explained to me though (if possible). I love to learn. LED is actually new af to me. Maybe been learning for a few months and it’s not easy for me. I did pick a little up here and their though.
I hope you find what your looking for.
Ok then we will talk about 4 first. You admit nothing I said was actually wrong. With the exception of the lumens and par thing.
Are you saying that if one 2700k led puts out 120 lumens and the other puts out 224 lumens, that the par isnt going to be higher with the led that has higher lumens?
You know it's possible to have a light with good par numbers that couldn't grow a plant? All it has to be is ir and uv. Nothing in between. It will read a high par. And then it would kill your plant.
Lumens are the visable light spectrum.
Par is the photosynthetic spectrum
The only real difference is ir and uv. The parts of the spectrum we cant see. Even on the best grow lights these are together less than 5% of the spectrum.
When one single 2700k smd LED has almost double another 2700k smd led, yes the par will be higher. This is how light works man. Maybe you dont understand as much as you think?
So tell me what you think. What par of the spectrum do you think that 80% more light goes to? Remember its 2700k
It's not possible to have a 2700k led with 80% more lumens and not have a higher par.
1 - 3 on the other hand. Well, that would be you just your opinions dressed up to look more valid than any other. As if "that's just me" justifies how you present yourself.
As if "you sound like me when I was younger" isnt passive aggressive.
As if you're not saying " I used to be like you, but I'm better than you now. And maybe one day you will be too".
Maybe you havent changed as much as you think you did? Maybe you dont notice you're still doing it? Again. Refute anything I actually said wrong. I'll accept it if you can show it to me wrong. But spouting your nonsense, then being called out on it, only to admit nothing I was was wrong, and that "that's just me". Isnt winning any arguments. Man. Let's stick to the facts.
You have a problem with lumens as a measurement. I told you I prefer par as well. But if you think vaild information cant be had by it. You dont understand light and how it works.
Prove me wrong please I'd love to know if I was.
