Let me get this clear so even a moron like me understands....

But I am now using 550W to produce 5,000 lumens?
Under this math, the more lights I place in there, the less lumens per watt i get?
This simply doesnt make sense....
I understand the lumen do not add up...but according to the scenario described.....my lumens are no higher than the single highest lumen output bulb?
Now what happens when I place these other 9 bulbs that dont add up in the lumen equation...say on the underside of the plant and on the sides.
Do the lumens count then?
I am totally confused....but I am not yet stoned either so that could explain why.
