No, definitely not that low. Like, those lower numbers will kind of work, but they will not produce optimally. 600-800 in Veg, maybe as low as 500, but otherwise, 900-1200 in flower. I wouldn’t go lower.
A plant isn't even going to use more than 1000 ppfd unless you are giving it extra co2.

So I just ordered my HLG 135!! How long did it take y'alls to get here?
If it was in stock from wherever you ordered it from it shouldn't be more than a week. I believe I saw you posting in one of these threads that you found a place that was an authorized HLG distributor that had one.

Yes that was me. HLG actually restocked so I ordered directly from them

It's a kit. They don't have any building to do. As soon as they have the parts they ship.
My fixture was assembled at the shop. They have both kits and prefab fixtures at Timber. However, if that’s the case, I dunno why it should take 9 weeks to get it when mine takes two weeks and has to be built.

Check your local aquarium place they sometimes rent out par meters as many fish and plant hobbyists also play with LEDs to light their tanks.
Is it the PAR spectrometer or the PAR spectroscope that not only senses intensity, but direction; and would they carry that one?
