So if the sun is 10,000 lumens per square foot would it not be good if i had 10260 lumens per square foot? I just added an a/c to my grow box and was able to up the lights to 51,300 lumens for 5 square feet and temps are at 71. Any thoughts?

Its really hard to use too much light.

i mean REALLY hard, heat would be an issue way beforehand.
