Re: [AGA Member] compact inter-node growth please...
Yes stem plants love bright light!!! I would even go for 3-4 wpg, You can
ventilate your light tubes.
Blue spectrum might encourage algae growth.
Trimming can help - but I would increase the light levels including RED
spectrum.

While this is acceptable for cabomba or Macrandra I do not enjoy the look of
Ceratophyllum demersum and Myriophyllum tuberculatum to say the least.

because of heat.

daylight (for the blue) with 50% warm white (for the red) - should I get rid
of my warm whites? Is it OK to go for straight daylight all
across-the-board?
