I'm interested in the 730 nm levels during a full moon.
What type of light bulb can you leave on 24 hrs to view plants without disturbing it's bloom cycle?

Bad time management or the payroll is too small.....I don't work more than 12hrs in a day, that's maybe just me though...

If green and yellow doesn't do anything to plants, why does HPS work so well? And the red and blue only Chinese LED panels that have more red and blue than an HPS of a much higher wattage than the LED, not grow so well?
The reason those green bulbs work well for viewing during "lights off" time, they emit practically no photons, especially if they're multiple feet away from the plants.
I use the orange colored CFLs, 13w, in my home when I want very little and relaxing light. It's a lot like candle light. I'm gonna take some PAR measurements off of it. I'm willing to bet at 18" from the bulb, it has less measurable light than what the full moon has.
Next full moon, and a clear night, I'll take my spectroradiometer outside and get some measurements.
I took a picture of Jupiter a few weeks ago:
And one of the moon on the same night:
you do realize that the moon is only 225,623 miles away at it;s closest point, mean while, jupiter is 365 million miles, again, at it's closest point..
that might have a lil something something to do with why one appears brighter..

I most certainly do "realize" where the moon and Jupiter are. I was just sharing some cool pictures, unrelated to the post.

of course i agree with you and riddle..i grow in a small closet, and don't even close the door half the time, and my plants see so much outside light it's not even remotely funny. yet, never a hermie..

My spectroradiometer reads 350nm to 1150nm, any 730nm present, it'll show. End of the month is the next full moon. Let's hope for a clear night.

Yea thats just you bro. I work well over 12 hours a day. As far as you saying bad time management you really wouldn't have a clue. Go ahead and troll all you want to, your not going to hurt my feelings this time friend. I mean really think about what you just said and how stupid that could make you look. You have no idea about my garden or my life. Your a troll from way back and i congratulate you. Well done!!!!!!!!

Dude your questioning my time management, which in turn questions my sexuality, which in turn i start to question my self. No reason you should be calling out a member like that. I sure as fuck wouldn't question any of your or any members gardening technique unless i was asked. All my bottoms are pushed, Thanks a lot.......

I have a light outside the tent that I turn on frequently. I was only concerned about light leaking inside the tent, After the excellent responses, I am not worried about it anymore. It would be nice to have a ip camera inside the tent with a light that could be on 24/7.

Life is unpredictable and full of surprises. I'm not bad at time management, time is bad at managing me.
