aside from the soft sales pitch it's a good vid. only a couple things i differ on.
plants look green as that is the color part of the spectrum they least use. they bounce it back which is why we see the color. it's important to note they don't bounce it all back though. they do use at least some.
green light is often used as work lighting in larger grows, if it becomes necessary to work on plants during the night cycle, as it disturbs them the least. grow specific equipment will often have a green indicator light for the same reason.
photons are photons, but the number and intensity - ppfd - hitting a plant from a led can cause a "burn" issue in the absence of heat that is unique to led. it manifests as a genetic looking issue and can be hard to figure out. the fix is simply to raise the light or back it off on the dimmer. seedlings and young plants are the most at risk.
i have to agree on the part about binning. a couple years ago mfgrs used to publish a lot more info on the emitters they used, up to and including binning. you never see that anymore, except in rare cases in top brands asking big money. then you need to pay attention to the count, a few top bins sprinkled in won't make up for a shitty count.
the diy guys always pay attention to the bin. when i sold rigs i always disclosed the binning as well.
