How much lighting needed per cubed foot?

[Buggy]

Ok, I know how many lumens are suggested for the square foot. BUT! What about square foot when the plants are taller???

Such as, when your plants are 4' tall, if you have CFLs that produce 4000 L per sq', what about the lower levels of the plants? Or do you just work at lessening the number of leaves lower down?

I'm just thinking consistancy.
