I've been digging into growing some greens, peppers, or other vegetables for fun. Playing with lights, pumps, and controllers seems pretty fun.

As far as I know Farm.one is using some Fluence Bioengineering LEDs for grow lights: https://fluence.science/innovator-spotlight/farm-one/ However, in the article it looks like they might be using strips of COB leds? Anyone have any thoughts or resources for doing this sorts of stuff?

There's a subreddit: /r/hands_on_complexity which is the absolute best source of real, actual information on lighting for plants that I've found.
Awesome. Thanks for that! I was initialy put off the by the several year old posts, but it looks like SAG has been updating them throughout the years. https://www.reddit.com/r/HandsOnComplexity/
