Here is a chart of DLI (daily light integral) needed for lots of common crops.

Here is a map of DLI in the USA by month.

So there is some wiggle room maybe. Looks like about 30 is good DLI and the USA gets 40-60 in the summer.

My gut feeling though tells me that the best performance is panels that use all the light or plants that get full access to it.
