I herd the light sensor does not detect just any random light (light bulbs etc), how exactly does this work? does it detect specific nm of light?

Hey Cali...You are correct in saying that the EasyBloom sensor does not just detect "random" light. The EasyBloom sensor detects Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR), which is the spectrum of light that is important to the plant. It is within this spectrum of light that the plant will absorb the energy needed to drive photosynthesis. Thanks for the inquiry. --Robby
