Think about it, if red spectrums of light are detrimental to the sacred plant, why is it that the harvest sun (which is quite red in the afternoons and evenings) causes outdoor plants to flower?
Both red and blue irradiance is detrimental to plants (kinda like a cup of coffee, it rehydrates yet dehydrates at the same time, but the rehydration should beat out the dehydration... only with the sun the good points far outweigh the bad), and in fact the green spectrum helps to nullify this irradiance.

Plants only flower beneath more red because this is what the sun mostly puts out and plants have adapted around it. A sun that puts out more blue should result in bigger, better, more potent plants.
