#I don't think anyone's tried to analyze the green sun spectrum or at least no one's told me.

Honestly, I don't think they are. People are moving back and forth between the two worlds without any sort of decontamination procedure. There's probably going to be some sort of plague sooner or later.
And this subway station isn't the only passage to another world either; every subway station in the city seems to have been affected by the phenomenon - and to a lesser degree, it's also occurring outside the city. Heard even China, which is on the other side of the world, has been affected too.
The only thing in our favor right now is that these plants are unable to live without the light of the green sun. Every plant specimen that crossed the boundary has inevitably died after a couple days. Unfortunately, this also includes the people that have been parasitized by the belly vines / hell bananas too. Someone tried to use that as a treatment, and the parasitized people died after suffering severe brain hemorrhage, which makes sense since those hell bananas send roots of some sort into the brain. I'm assuming some sort of immune suppression is also involved, since these things are definitely very foreign.
I'm in agreement with you. This place doesn't really follow the typical plant biology, though I haven't really tested the red-brown soil. It doesn't look like bog soil at any rate. The whole supplemental mutualistic organisms thing just kinda reminds about the whole theory on how groups of prokaryotes became a single cell / eukaryote except now I'm seeing it on a macro scale.
Environment-wise, it's humid. Very humid, like I wouldn't be surprised if the air burst into water type of humid. Like the temperature is only around 75-80 here, but it feels like it's the 100s if I move around more than a bit. Despite the humidity, I haven't seen it rain though, and there's no clouds in the sky either. Then again, I've only been there for three days.
Insect-wise, I've seen fist-sized flies, the horse-sized mosquitos, and something that's a cross between a dragonfly and an earthworm - that one was almost human-sized. It's hard to observe the flies and dragonworms because they stay further away from camp. As for the mosquitos, well, I think they've learned that humans are far squishier than the plants, so they're starting to attack the camp.
I don't know about pollination or reproduction. The only things resembling fruits that I've seen are the hell bananas, which attack when something moves under it - and then they go parasitize the mammal that did it. They don't react to the insects though.
@pyxisastronautica has replied to your post:
L: Doctor, may I ask a few questions about this ecosystem?
Sure, but keep in mind that I haven't really made it past the entrance. Most of what I say is based on my observation, some recordings, and a couple autopsies.
I believe I've met Quebec and X-Ray. Are you Lima then? I'm Euri.
