Re: footcandles; mesurement tool

From: Denis denis at skg.com> on 2000.09.19 at 15:32:26(5454) Jack: I'm not sure what is out there in Photographic (usually expensive) light meters but there are several listed at under $100 in the Hummert International, Horticultural Supply Catalog that will work for horticultural Purposes. There are several in the $150 and up range as well. Hummerts Toll free number is 800-325-3055. Hope that helps some.
