Why is LED Grow Light better

What is LED grow light?

If you are a fan of indoor planting or a practitioner of commercial planting in greenhouses, you may find that LED grow lights have become more and more popular among growers in recent years. This kind of plant growth lamp using light-emitting diodes breaks the long-standing dominant position of HID plant growth lamps in indoor planting. So what exactly is the LED grow light? The LED plant growth lamp is a lamp that uses LED chips to provide light for plant growth in a modern and efficient way. What are the advantages of LED grow lights?

 

Advantages of LED grow lights

1.Full spectrum

In the growth cycle of plants, different colors of light will bring different growth changes to plants, affecting the formation of roots and flowers. Generally speaking, the colors that affect plant growth are blue and red. If your plant has been It grows normally when exposed to blue and red growth lights, while the general HID growth lights can only simulate one of the lights, while the LED growth lights support the full spectrum, and any color of light can be used. Simulated, although it looks like a white light in our eyes, it actually brings full-spectrum light to plants.

2.Longer service life

The lifespan of the general HID plant growth lamp is about 10,000 hours, and the HID plant growth lamp will have the problem of light decay as the use time becomes longer, and the lifespan of the LED plant growth lamp is generally more than 50,000 hours. During the use cycle, the problem of light decay will not occur.

3.Higher PPE

When it comes to plant growth lamps, we have to mention that the photon flux efficiency is μmol/J. μmol/J is the parameter that plant growth lamps can really bring growth to plants. Simply put, how much μmol/J is directly facing Affect the growth of plants. HID plant growth lights can only produce about 1.9μmol/J, while LED plant growth lights can produce 2.3μmol/J -2.8μmol/J, which proves that LED plant growth lights are more efficient and better. Promote the growth of plants.

4.Produce less heat

Anyone who has used HID plant growth lights knows that HID plant growth lights produce very high heat. Exhaust fans and other equipment need to be installed in the planting environment to cool down, so as not to "dry" the plants, or even if they are not careful. Cause a fire. The LED plant growth lamp will only produce very low heat during operation, which is far less than the heat of "drying" plants, so there is no need to purchase more equipment for cooling and ventilation.

5.More energy saving

Because the LED plant growth lamp directly converts electrical energy into light energy, it will not lose energy due to chemical reactions and heat, so the energy efficiency is even higher. If you use a 200W LED plant growth lamp, it can play The effect of the 400W HID plant growth lamp can directly save energy by 50%.

​The use height of plant lights

After talking about the advantages of LED plant growth lights, let’s talk about the usage height of LED plant growth lights. Although this parameter is mostly linked to the wattage of the LED plant growth lights you use, in general, because of the LED’s With its own advantages, it has a relatively fixed value for the use height of many plants.

1.Seedling period

In the early stage of plant growth, since the seedlings are relatively fragile at this time, the light intensity required is relatively low, so you can place the lamp between 24-36 inches on top of the soil, depending on the watts of the LED plant growth lamp you use. Count to determine this value, the greater the wattage, the farther away the lamp, but no more than 36 inches.

2.Flowering plants

When the plant grows to the flowering stage, at this time, for the plant, closer light can carry out photosynthesis to a greater extent, so at this time, the light can be placed between 16-36 inches from the top of the plant canopy, which is also based on The wattage of the LED plant growth light you use is determined.

3.Matters needing attention

If your plant is a plant that does not need to receive too much light, such as cannabis, you can increase the light distance appropriately.

Advantages of our led grow light

The PG03 series plant light produced by HISHINE can be regarded as the best LED plant light in 2021, because it not only has the advantages of the LED plant growth light mentioned above, but also does more on this basis.

1.Support full spectrum

All our PG03 led grow light uses diodes that support full-spectrum white light, which can well meet the light waves required for the entire growth cycle of plants. The deep red spectrum of 660nm can help plants to bloom faster. 

2.More PPE

As mentioned earlier, the advantage of LED plant growth lamps for HID plant growth lamps is that it has a higher photon flux efficiency (μmol/J), which is a value that can directly affect plant growth, and higher PPE values ​​can bring Faster growth and faster yield. Our PG03 led grow light product can provide effective photons of 2.6-2.8μmol/J, which can promote plant growth faster.

3.Easy to install

For planting novices who are not good at installing electrical appliances and just getting started, the most feared problem is the installation of LED plant grow lights, because the installation of many products is more difficult, and our PG03 led grow light takes care of all users. The idea, our PG03 led grow light is very easy to install.

4.Less transportation costs

The most worrying thing many people are about to buy items online is the shipping cost, especially the transnational shipping cost, which can be said to be very expensive. How many people have to miss a good product because of the expensive shipping cost. Our PG03 led grow light adopts better product design and uses better packaging methods, which can save up to 70% of the packaging space, which means that 70% of the shipping costs can be reduced, so that good products will not be expensive. The amount of shipping is defeated.

 

Why is LED Grow Light better

 

​Conclusion

LED plant growth lights are indeed better than HID plant growth lights in all aspects, but LED plant growth lights are more expensive than HID plant growth lights because of the price. However, from a long-term development point of view, LED plant growth lights are more expensive than HID plant growth lights. The cost is less than that of the HID plant growth lamp, and it is more stable. Not to mention that LED grow lights have the advantage of being able to bring more yields. Whether you are growing indoors commercially or planning to grow indoors for a long time, LED grow lights are your better choice.
