Question... Anyone with experience can answer. What is the penetration of these lights. Will they penetrate a 4 foot tall plant?

When I grew the plants shown earlier in this thread, they were 4.5-5' from the top of the container. I lollipopped the plants to create about 2.5-3' of growth on top. It looked to me like I'd have a lot of air buds below that.

Personally, I'd go for sidelighting rather than concerning myself with penetration. Supplement with Cree LED lightbulbs or PAR38 spot/floods sold at Home Depot. I think better coverage works better than concentrating all the watts at one place.

The new A51 model should be awesome this way. It's supposed to be smaller modules that can be hung separately, or joined together to form a monolithic fixture. Dimmable, giving flexibility for how much light you supply overall.
