Plants do not use all parts of the spectrum equally. This is because photosynthetic pigments like chlorophyll and carotene absorb light very strongly at particular wavelengths. Using the right colors in the proper proportions, the performance of LED lighting can be optimized. This graph shows how the spectrum of LEDGrowLightsTM mirrors that of the absorption spectrum of chlorophyll, a plant's primary energy collecting pigment. Also see that the peak of the spectrum of our red lights matches the peak of the photosynthetic response curve. LEDGrowLights produce light that plants can use very efficiently
ADVANTAGES OF LEDGrowLights
Replace or complement existing grow lights
Put high intensity light in a confined area
Reduce power consumption
Reduce heat output
Cut your maintenance costs
Replace noisy lights and ballasts
Long lifetime
Recommended useful lifetime of 50,000 hours for red lamps- the equivalent of burning a light for 18 hours a day, 365 days a year for seven years and seven months.
Energy efficient
Save 75% on power over HID lighting, plus reduce or eliminate power consumption caused by extra blowers and air conditioning systems.
Better for plant growth
Plants can use nearly all of the light emitted from LEDGrowLights. Only about 10% of the power used and about 35% of the light generated by metal halide lamps is useful for plant growth.
Low heat output
Warm to the touch. LEDGrowLights produce very little heat. No special ventilation or air conditioning is needed.
Economical
Long life, low power consumption, high efficiency and cool operating temperatures make LEDGrowLights a cost effective choice for your indoor growing needs.
Light is Controlled
The balance of red and blue light can be varied as needed for optimum results.
More Versatile
Grow tomatoes next to African violets or orchids - all will thrive. LEDs will not scorch young or tender plants.
