What is LED Grow Light?

LED Grow Light, as the name suggests, is a lamp used by plants. LED Grow Light simulates the principle that plants need sunlight for photosynthesis, supplementing light for plants or completely replacing sunlight.

The light sources suitable for plant supplement light include: high-pressure sodium lamps, metal halide lamps, ceramic metal halide lamps, microwave sulfur lamps, plasma lamps, fluorescent lamps, electrodeless lamps and tri-color rare earth fill light lamps, LED Grow Light, etc. The most commonly used are sodium lamps, metal halide lamps and LED Grow Lights for plant lighting. Others are relatively niche or very expensive.
High-pressure sodium lamps can be divided into ordinary sodium lamps, high-efficiency sodium lamps, and sodium lamps for plant lighting. Commonly used are 250w, 400w, 600w, and 1000w. The current trend is that the larger the power, the better, because it is very simple, a set of 1000w system is cheaper than two sets of 400w systems and the coverage is better.
Ordinary sodium lamps are inexpensive and have low luminous flux. As the name suggests, high-efficiency sodium lamps have higher luminous flux, but these are not real sodium lamps for plant lighting, they are just used as street lamps.

Sodium lamps for plant lighting must have the correct spectrum and high lumen output; while high-efficiency sodium lamps have high lumen output, the content of red and blue light in the spectrum is much lower than that of plant sodium lamps, and the useless green light is higher than plant sodium lamps 7 -9 times, it can only waste energy under the effect. That's why some customers asked why the growth effect is not obvious, and you are using the wrong light.
