8.4 µmol•m-2•day-1 PAR.
Please can someone tell me approximately how this measurement converts to LUX or FC?

That's probably DLI (day light integral) instead of PPFD because it is per day, so you need this conversion first before OZpaph's conversion.

I'm guessing micro is a typo. If it is 8.4mol/m^2/day, then under 12h of constant (i.e. artificial light), 97.2 micromol/m^2/s of PPFD will give the amount. That's about Paph/Phal level light. If 'micro' is not a typo, it is practically pitch black.
