Lumens vs PAR

Lumens are measured for human vision while PAR is a measurement for plant growth (photosynthetically active radiation). Here is why that's important. 
Lumens vs PAR

The SpotOn Quantum PAR Meter Displays PAR in umols/ms. 

How Lumens Compare to PAR.

Lumens are for humans and PAR is for plants. The two don't have much to do with one another.

We made this short video that explains the differences. Or, read plese on...

Lumen is a measurement of human eyes ability to perceive the brightness emitted by any light source, and its measured in foot candles or LUX. 

By contrast, PAR (photosynthetic active radiation) is light energy measured in quantum photon flux which plants "see" to photosynthesize.

Because PAR is a quantum measurement and it cannot be easily converted to LUX.  Different color wavelengths of light travel at very slightly different speeds, so a complex quantum equation is applied to each wavelength to provide us with PAR. 

PAR is the total amount of energy in 400-700nm wavelengths of energy emitted by our sun, which is associated with optimal plant photosythesis. 

LUX is the total brightness of a light source, which is associated with what our eyes perceive. They are each their own interpretation of the photons of light. One for plants and one for us. The higher the LUX level the brighter the light source is to our eyes.

PAR is the spectrum that plants absorb or perceive. The higher the PAR the more intense the light source is for the plants. 

Can LUX meters be used to measure PAR? The short answer is no. They can be used for an approximate measurement of full-spectrum white light and a simple equation can be applied to give you a general comparison to PAR. However lights that contain more blue energy or more red energy will throw off this calculation significantly. 

See the SpotOn Quantum PAR meter 

PAR is measured with a specialized quantum sensor. Companies like Everfine, Licor, Apogee Instruments and Innoquest SpotOn all produce high quality quantum PAR meters and sensors.  

These sensors display PAR in PPFD or photosynthetic photon flux density. When you hear that someone grows at 1000 umols/ms this means their PAR level is 1000 PPFD. 

PAR levels change over distance from artificial sunlight being measured. If you increase the distance from the light fixture, PPFD will drop dramatically and exponentially. This is because an artificial light source produces a limited amount of photons as compared to the sun. PAR typically drops by 50% for every 12" of distance away from an artificial light source. And there is no standard that grow light makers use to measure PAR.

There is a standard used in lighting laboratory measurements called PPF (photosynthetic photon flux ) which is the total amount of photosynthetic energy a light outputs. But this measurement does not accurately predict PAR levels at the distance where your plants are from the grow light. This is because of the size of the light and how close all the diodes are to one-another. A 600 watt grow light that is 4’ x 4’ in size as compared to a 600 watt grow light that us 5’ long by 6” wide will have very different PAR measurements over different distances from the light, but could have the same rated PPF output. 

Plants in the flowering stage of growth do best between 800-1000 PPFD, and can be succesful up to 1500 PPFD depending on the grow environment and available CO2 levels. If supplemental C02 is added to the grow area plants can tolerate higher levels of PAR. Veg plants on the other hand prefer light levels between 250-400 PPFD. And clones and baby seedlings can't tolerate much more than 100 PPFD. 

An additional consideration in lighting layout for grow is what is called crossover. This is the area between two light sources where the light from each source crosses over. These are the photons that shoot at an angle and are still beneficial to the plants. Crossover is an important consideration and can significantly improve PPFD levels. Lighting layout that considers the distance between fixtures based on the amount of PPFD each light can produce allows light loss to be recaptured creating less wasted photons and more beneficial light for your plants. 

There are many different types of grow lights in the market today. Some are better than others at distributing energy evenly.

The WeatherEFX LED Grow Lighting Controller can help you mimic natural sunlight conditions, promoting healthy plant growth. Wifi Controller Manual and Troubleshooting Guide  The controller uses weather data to adjust the light intensity and spectrum of your LEDs, simulating changing light conditions throughout the day.  You can also create custom on/off schedules and scenarios, such as sunrise/sunset, to further customize your lighting. Plus, the controller's Cloud Intelligence feature allows you to check in on your lights from anywhere. Take your garden to the next level with more natural lighting using FGI's weatherEFX. Learn about Cloud Intelligence and our Wifi Controller on our YouTube Channel here:           The WeatherEFX concept in science is based on the idea that changes in weather can have a significant impact on plant growth and development. The term was first coined by botanists studying the effect of leaf shading and competitive growth responses in subalpine herbs. They found that a reduction in sunlight due to clouds results in increased water status and CO2 uptake throughout the day. This allows plants to benefit from the periodic reduction of evaporative demand that results from natural periods of intermittent shade. WeatherEFX has since been applied to other areas of research, including agriculture, where it is used to study how changes in precipitation and temperature can affect crop yields. It is also being used to investigate how extreme weather events, such as heat waves and drought.  The Flex is a top-quality grow light that won't break the bank?

FGI Lightbar 185w LED Grow Light 4x2, Lightweight, US Made In WA $ 399.00 $ 495.00
Our FGI Lightbar 185 is our most popular product for veg growth. At 42' long the unit covers 4' wide grow trays and replaces T5HO 8L units with 50% energy savings. The 185 uses full spectrum warm white and cool white diodes to create a spectrum with lots of blue light for lush veg growth and strong stem development as well as warm yellow and orange energy to prepare the plants for the bloom phase.  This unit is a commercial grow favorite. We've sold over 4000 of these units and many of the largest growers in the Pacific Northwest rely on this light exclusively for their veg rooms.  The FGI Lightbar 185 Overview 190 watts of dual colored chips. 50% 3000K and 50% 5000K CCT. Our patented spectrum drives thicker/woodier stems and lush leaf growth in veg and dense compact flowers. 417 umols/ms peak PAR at 18" above a 4'x2' canopy - use two over a 4x4 and PAR will increase due to crossover.  Lightweight.
