Like many new technologies, LED grow light have a wide range of prices and quality, which makes choosing the best option challenging.
How do you choose among all the LED grow lights and get the right one for your plants?
Here are some of the most important things I learned during the process of using LED grow lights, meanwhile here are some grow lights that we recommend buying based off of our extensive research, experience, and feedback from our group of grow light enthusiasts and users.
If you are new to LED, I hope this can speed up your learning curve. And if you are an expert, please share your comments that can also help those who are just entering this extraordinarynew grow life era.
SPECTRUM
Any manufacturer of LED grow lights that claims to have the “best spectrum” is misleading customers. This is because plants respond well to many different spectrums, while no one spectrum is entirely suitable for all stages and varieties of plant growth. The ECO Farm Grow Lights we design can provide millions of potentially broad and narrow spectra without sacrificing yield, allowing growers to develop customized spectra for their unique conditions, varieties, and desired results.
ECO FARM 400W/600W/800W COB LED GROW LIGHT
Eco Farm grow lights Using Bridgelux & Epistar 8x 100W COB chips to make well-balanced light and illumination. Professional 12 bands full spectrum LED grow light, best lighting mixture & evenly coverageull spectrum for indoor plants veg and flower UV&IR. Two dimmers can adjust the concentration of different plants and different seedlings, vegetables and flowers. Especially suitable for marijuana, cannabis medical plants.
OPTICAL DISTRIBUTION
PAR essentially refers to the amount of light actually available to be used during photosynthesis. A light source may emit more light, but your plant cannot use all the light-some light has no real effect on the photosynthesis process. The uniformity of the canopy is almost as important as energy efficiency. Look for the PAR mapping, which indicates the optimal installation height and PAR level of the application you expect on the regional representative. For example, we provide a PAR map, which shows the expected PAR levels for various planting conditions and climbing heights.
WATERPROOF LM301B 110W/220W/450W/600W QUANTUM BOARD
Eco Farm quantum board grow light use Samsung LM301B diode high efficiency white light board, with high efficiency 2.7 mol/J.
White light full spectrum is best for canopy penetration and easy to observe.
Large solid aluminum radiator, high-quality cable protection cover, waterproof LED, high safety performance and dimmable MEAN WELL driver.
The experimentally certified light formula is beneficial to the healthy growth of plants,including dimmable power supply.
HEAT DISSIPATION
Although LEDs make extremely efficient use of electrical energy, they also generate heat while emitting light. However, unlike traditional growth lights, carefully designed LED grow lights are composed of correct driving and high-quality components. It runs very cool, and the plant tissue (leaves) can be very close to the LED chip without harm. High-quality LED chips are mounted on heat-dissipating substrates, and then these substrates can be mounted on a larger heat sink, so that heat can be efficiently dissipated. If the heat generated by the LED is not dissipated, the life of the LED chip will be shortened, and the chip may fail.
ECO Farm 240W/320W/480W/650W FOLDABLE QUANTUM BOARD PRO
ECO Farm LED are built with sophisticated heat sinks that cool super-efficiently without any cooling fan, so LED grow lights run silently. They were also designed with high-end LEDs that are driven at less than 50% of their capacity to extend their useful life to the maximum. The result is a highly efficient LED grow light that can live in any room with you for a very long time and not drive you crazy with a loud cooling fan that runs whenever it’s turned on.
CONCLUSION
LED grow lights are becoming increasingly more complex and setting new lighting standards for the horticultural industry. We hope you find this information useful, and can now make more informed decisions. The market is full of many products and brands, but we believe that quality makes itself visible.
