Will light be sufficient if left covered for succulents?

Can't really answer this question. Air passes through but not sure about amount of light. Sorry!

no light filters through these covers. They look decorative, but do NOT protect against freeze.....read the fine, fine print. I found this company to be deceptive and refused to give me my money back after I lost all my new plants.

I don't think so, the material has a pretty tight weave and I don't think much light would get through. Having to uncover during the day is the main down-side of these types of bags, but better than having everything freeze.

Should be okay. Doesn't get too hot. A bulb in the 6700k color range will be better for plants. However, it depends on what plants you are growing

If your coral is not light sensitive. Meaning if you have low light requirement corals then yes. But as a general I would say at least keep the blue bulb too.

Plenty of light for that depth. I would say enough for medium plants. You could probably also do the ray2 if looking for more alternatives.

I really depends on the plants. Amazon swords probably not but for Java Ferns or Anubias varieties probably. Not all plant have the same lighting needs.

Probably not, you will most likely need the LED indicated for plants, it has a different light spectrum

A bit if it's very bright, like direct sunlight. Enough to tell there's a light behind it.

Its just the lamp stand so yes. You'll need the a light bulb with the correct spectrum of light for your plants to complete it.

The light is awesome for lps and sps corals. It should be good for an anemone too but it depends on what the anemone likes.

In an enclosed space yes, depends on what you're growing also. Different plants would like different lighting I found this a great lighting system for vegtative growth it was less then par for flower development by all means you cannot go wrong on the price and quality hydrofarm is on par with many 200w systems of other names

My plants were about 2 ft from the bulb and did well. So one bulb could cover your two trays side-by-side, maybe even end-to-end if you swap them around every few days.

yes it does; its important to keep your plants at least 18 inches away from the light and try to minimize anything being in contact with the light

no no.... just leave them there! they are for another strip of lighting to connect to! they will be fine!! We just left them!! they're waterproof !! ;)

Keep plants at least 8" away from lights and make sure area is ventilated--otherwise you may find wilted, dead plants! Keep them under 82 degrees.

Yes, this is what my wife purchased them for. However...and as Ellen G. stated, they need to get adequate sunlight. This was a problem in our house in the location where my wife intended. Another thing to beware of is the watering issue. With a wall design, one might use an array of small containers to hold the plants individually; it's likely that such containers won't have drainage holes. Be very careful with over-watering the plants without drainage to the soil else you will quickly find dead succulents from root rot!

Depends on the fixture. I've installed two mushroom lights and one modern fixture. They all covered the metal plate. In reality, I don't see the benefit of the metal plate except keeping dust in the attic from drifting into the space between the can light and the drywall

They really need indirect lighting. Just artificial lighting will probably cause them to die. At farm and garden stores they sometimes have little lights that mimick this. Not super expensive. If you're really set on getting your teacher a succulent try to include this type of light with it.
