RE: Vanilla Frosting Harvest Update

Most plant leaves do their best with sunlight between 3,000 and 4,000 lumens per square foot. So the question is, how many light lumens do you need for indoor plant farms?

A standard 100w lightbulb will give you 1300 lumens.

question are you going to use led grow lights or the ones with the uhm,... gases...? unfortunatly I am having a mind block and I AM NOT going to search it up. need to focus on remembering something I know for sure.

anyways...

Here is a post from hightimes about light lumens. it is worth a read.

I’ll be getting LED. The good lights have the new Samsung chips which produce 220 lumens per wattI’ll be looking to get the migro 8which is 480 watts and it has a even spread all around. So I will be working with 105,600 lumans. There are better lights, but the Migro the best light in the 600$ range.
