YES! Now you're getting into the things that make me so excited about this light! We're used to talking in very grossly general terms about how plants need more blue in veg and more red in flower. But thinking about the way sunlight is filtered and refracted as it passes from east to west combined with things like what you just learned about photosynthesis peaking before the highest intensity of the day leads one to wonder about the possibilities. Add in what some are learning with the GLR cycle and man, ideas for experiments in light manipulation start popping like popcorn!
At any rate, it leads me to wonder if it would be useful to ditch the common thinking of ramping up to a maximum intensity of all spectrums, then ramping down to a night cycle in a smooth bell curve. Maybe ramp up to about noon, then ramp back down a bit, not all the way to darkness for a couple of hours, then ramp up again to a higher intensity than before but with more red dominance, then back down for night. Just as a random idea I just pulled out of my butt, mind you.
But, my point is that it seems like the GLR guys are on to something that we can totally build on with the ability to manipulate intensity and spectrum mix in addition to just on/off cycles.
Someone smarter than me will have to do it though. I'm smart enough to know it's going to lead to some major freaking breakthroughs, but not smart enough to figure them out for myself. LOL
