2021-11-13

Plant Grow Lights, as the name suggests, are lamps used by plants. The plant light simulates the principle that plants need sunlight for photosynthesis, and supplements light for plants or completely replaces sunlight.

Introduction to Plant Grow Light
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 plant lamps, etc. The most commonly used are sodium lamps, metal halide lamps and LED plant lights for plant supplement light. Others are relatively niche or very expensive. Different plants have different requirements for the spectrum, such as red/blue 4:1 for lettuce, 5:1 for strawberry, 8:1 for general purpose, and some need to increase infrared and ultraviolet

use
After application tests, the plant light is very suitable for plant growth, flowering and fruiting. Generally, indoor plants and flowers will grow worse with time due to the lack of natural light. By using plant lights with the required spectrum of plants, not only can they promote their growth, but they can also prolong the flowering period and improve the quality of the flowers. The application of this high-efficiency light source system to agricultural production such as greenhouses, greenhouses and other facilities on the one hand can solve the shortcomings of insufficient sunlight leading to the decline of the taste of tomatoes, cucumbers and other greenhouse vegetables, and on the other hand, it can also make winter solanum vegetables in advance. It will be listed around the Spring Festival, so as to achieve the purpose of off-season cultivation.
(1) As artificial supplementary lighting, the lighting can be enhanced at any time from 5 in the morning to 23:00 in the evening, and the effective lighting time can be extended.
(2) Regardless of whether it is sunny, cloudy or rainy, the light required by plants can be reasonably and effectively extended and scientifically controlled, as long as you have mastered this light supplement product and product application technology.
(3) In the greenhouse or plant laboratory, it can replace natural light to ensure healthy plant growth and promote better plant growth

working principle
Light environment is one of the important physical environmental factors that are indispensable for plant growth and development. Controlling plant morphology through light quality regulation is an important technology in the field of facility cultivation.

Precautions
As a high-power product, you should choose a product with good quality and safety assurance, and pay attention to safe use of electricity when installing and using it.
