What’s the main factors to choose LED grow light?
Led plant grow lights only about 20% of indoor farming lighting . We believe that in the next five years, with the improvement of LED grow lights technology and the narrowing of the gap with traditional grow lights, Indoor LED grow lights will definitely become the dominant lighting for indoor farming.
Grow lights should provide a suitable spectrum for photosynthesis, which is the key to plant growth. Before purchasing indoor grow lights, be sure to check the spectrum provided. Providing full spectrum grow light is an ideal choice for your growth space. This is where LED grow lights come in handy.
There are many different types of Led grow lights and LED grow light bulbs in the market. You should consider the following factors:
1-Spectrum;
Different wavelengths of light have different effects on plant photosynthesis. The wavelength of light required for plant photosynthesis is about 400-700nm. 400-500nm (blue light) and 610-720nm (red light) contribute the most to photosynthesis.
Blue (470nm) and red (630nm) LEDs can only provide the light required by plants. Therefore, the ideal choice of LED plant lamp is to use the combination of these two colors.
Blue light can promote the growth of green leaves
Red light contributes to flowering and fruiting and prolongs the flowering period.
Generally led grow lights are full spectrum led.
2-PPF / PPF – more light intensity
PPFD refers to the amount of light suitable for active photosynthesis of plants. Higher light efficiency means more energy-saving
3- Low heat, lifespan long- lasting and safe
Led plant grow lights with 50000 hours lifetime, and low heat ,If when you grow cannabis indoor with indoor grow light led. It’s much safe than with high heat HPS grow lights;
4- LED chip quality;
