I plan to try the Dr.meter Professional LED Light Meter to measure the lux of a 240w kingbrite led quantum board in a 32x32 tent. The temperature in tent is like 77-81f with around 50 - 60% humidity in the tent.

Amazon product

I have read different numbers on different websites. What lux do you run at in veg and flowering on there?
 
From what I understand Lux is measurement of light visible to the human eye. Our cannabis plants light usage is measured in PAR or PPFD.
There is an equation to get a guesstimate of PAR using a LUX meter and white light.
Your kingbrite in a 3x3 should be 737 uMol/m2/s @20" height.
There is a quick read here that can explain more than I can

I was just reading this page earlier trying to figure out why my light turns plants purple at a certain distance away. Has something to do with Anthocyanin in the plant and light spectrum.
