That's not exactly correct, but close enough. Let's say I'm trying to find the least expensive way to achieve the needed light levels. How do I know how many LED's I would need vs how many T-5 lamps. I can get the color spectrum I need simply by choosing the right bulb/led, but as far as how many bulbs or LED's, how do I know what I need? Is there some other method of calculation or at least a watts/gallon or watt/inch of depth for each type? Inquiring newbies want to know! And thanks for your reply.
