I said nothing about defused light being better for penitration, I said plants prefer defused lighting.

i want to see the 30 lumen light that grows ANYTHING (but mold )
you can it's called an LED. It's made by snap-lite http://www.quantumdev.com/LED_Produc...snap-lite.htmlAnd face it PAR is taking hold. SON agro, sun light systems, and hotilux have adopted the PAR standard. Sure alot of botanists didnt accept it at first but as PAR developed into YPF-par and such more and more accept it. NASA and Biospere used PAR for all their tests.. not one mention of lumens, I wonder why is that?? PAR will never take complete hold while people continue to say Lumens are everything.
