There are 1280 LEDS per active sunblade.
There are 3 active sunblades per 4' x 4' table.
There are 3840 active LEDS per 4' x 4' table.
There are 9 plants per 4' x 4' table.
There are 426 LEDS per plant
Each SMD LED has a PPF = 0.54 µmol/s (when run at 0.16 watts)
Therefore the PPF delivered to each 4' x 4' table is 2073 µmol/s
Therefore the PPF delivered to each plant is 230 µmol/s
I would like to stress that:
Top down lighting delivers PPF to the plant two dimensionally.
The Suncloak Lighting System delivers PPF to the plant three dimensionally. Three dimensional delivery from thousands of light sources is so much more efficient than 2D delivery that it makes traditional concepts of PPF obsolete . Our yield results are slowly but surely proving this fact.
My next post will include results from a THC Bomb grow using the Suncloak light system.
I hope this information is helpful.
