Was sounding really good till I read this:

GE Plant & Aquarium flourescent bulbs are another case in point: they have very low lumen ratings, but provide much more energy for plant growth than other kinds of flourescents with higher lumen ratings.
Whomever this is saying this is not a stoner.

I will never be convinced that a GE Plant and Aquarium is superior to good CFL's for an outdoor plant grown INDOORS.

No way

TO use his own logic in sense, I would reply in his very own contradictory words....

(otherwise everyone would have LPS lights in their grow room).

I would just replace his LPS and substitue GE plant and aquarium bulbs.

THis is against everything I have ever learned, experienced. Sounds like a new science geek.....growing more than tomatoes. Some day I shall show my real ferns

Watts are not more important than lumens.

Other wise we would all be growing 150 soft white incandescents....

Right under the kitchen sink light.

But thanks for the time and courtesy Sir MB
