Simple question, if I'm wearing short sleeves when I'm around the plants, will it start giving me a farmers tan? I tend to tan easily.

So what caused "bleaching" with led ?
Clearly the light emitted is able to damage tissue

I don't think so but i would tell the wife it does, you might get her to get naked and go water the plants more often...win win

Pigment loss/bleach from light saturation/ proximity, high 660nm spd is known to cause the dreaded "hash tip".......no tan though: )

HID lighting will already have given an entire generation of growers macular degeneration.

Spraying nasty pesticides indoors will have given them cancer.
