How to choose full spectrum led plant grow light

There are two types of application scenarios for the selection of full-spectrum LED plant growth lights, home or professional agricultural planting fill light (such as plant factories, greenhouses), and the latter involves a lot more optical design.

The existing plant fill lights on the market include fluorescent lights, HID lights, and LED lights. Regardless of the purpose, LED lights are recommended.

This is mainly because, compared with traditional plant lights, LED plant lights have the following advantages:

High light efficiency (energy saving), wide spectrum coverage (easy to obtain monochromatic light or full spectrum), adjustable light intensity spectrum, long life, less heat generation (can be illuminated at close range, saving planting space), diversified lamp forms (can meet the Different application scenarios), high security.

For example: In our planting experiment, vegetables that take 45 days to mature in the natural environment can grow into 45 days after planting for 30 days using LED plant fill light.
Another example: At present, most of the greenhouses use HID lamps, but the HID lighting efficiency is not as high as that of LEDs. Although the price of HID lamps is much lower, power consumption is the biggest consumption of plant lighting costs. According to the comparison of 600WLED and 1000WHPS (HPS is a kind of HID lamp), the number of photons of the two lamps is similar, but the electricity cost of one year can be saved by about 2300RMB, and the service life of a qualified LED lamp is 50000h, high pressure sodium lamp The service life is only 3000h

In addition, before purchasing a plant fill light, you need to understand some lighting parameters, including lighting power (related to fill light effect, energy consumption cost), spectrum (affect fill light effect), style, size, lamp body material, weight And the type of light source (related to the life of the lamp), etc.

If you are a household fill light demander, here are some suggestions when purchasing:
Try to choose high-efficiency products. High luminous efficiency and odor means that the better the luminous efficiency of the lamps, not only saves electricity, saves air conditioning, saves lamps, but also has better irradiation effects;
1.Light efficiency: refers to the efficiency of converting electrical energy into light energy, the unit is μmol/J.

2. Pay attention to the uniformity of lamps;

3. Spectral ratio, for example, the spectrum with more red and blue has obvious effect on crop coloring and firming, which will be explained later with pictures;

4. Household fill lights also need to consider color rendering and eye protection, which are related to daily appreciation.

If you are a professional agricultural grower, before buying a plant fill light, it is very important to first understand the planting needs!

1.What plants are you lighting for? Because different plants have different requirements for light intensity and spectrum, this affects the selection of fill light power and spectrum customization

Spectrum customization: The spectrum of the artificial light source is carefully designed according to the needs of plant growth. Professional plant fill light will customize the spectrum according to the needs of different growth stages of different crops, and the spectrum can significantly affect the fill light effect.

2. The area and layout of the fill light area, which not only affects the selection of lamp power, but also the selection of lamp size and style;

3. Space environment, such as the lighting conditions in the area, shading conditions, and the height at which the lamps can be hung etc., to provide a reference for the selection of lamp body material (such as UV resistance), light source type (thermal light source or cold light source) and suspension load-bearing;

4. Estimated cost of fill light, etc. The plant lighting market combines the physiological characteristics of plants with lighting fixtures. The products are different but the quality is also uneven.

While considering the supplementary light effect, the safety certification of the lamps, the warranty period of the lamps and the after-sales service should also be considered. Professional The problem of the problem should be handed over to the professional people, and let the professional people use the data to speak.
