The LICOR 6400 photosynthesis system seems to be reliable, but I have not used much the new version (6400). My question is for people with more experience using this machine. How do you determine when to take the measurement? Are the stability parameters provided by the apparatus reliable? Or do you simply assume that a given time (say 1 minute) will do it? Do you go for the lowest possible coefficient of variation as shown in the machine? What in you experience is the best?
