I'd second that, if your working on tunability, then 5000k channel is not necessary... don't know about microgreens though
Red should give microgreens large leaves, and blue taste right?

Usually that's the case, the problem with too much red is the stretch, things start to look stringy, blue keeps it compact and looking healthy, depends on what you are growing exactly though.

Well DigiKey just dropped the price on the gen 2’s by about 40%. Hope we will see the gen 3 soon

With the price drop in mind, what types of umol/w does the EB-gen2 give
@350mA
@700mA
@1400mA?

I have only tested the vesta strips, I am not sure how the rest of the range performs. I could take a close guess going off lumens.

I'm also interested in their umol/w. What did the Vestas come in at @TEKNIK ?

I only tested it at 500mA and 1 Amp
I will show some results in lumens and PPF so you can do the conversions
