Here it is: the latest in growing technology, the LED GROW LIGHT.
Save Energy, Reduce Heat, Give Plants The Light They Love And Nothing Else!
These
RED Spectrum bulb provides RED spectrum perfect for the flowering/budding stage of plant growth.
Measures: 5.75" wide x 5" long
RED SPECTRUM L.E.D. = 645-655 Nanometers (NM)
RED LIGHT stimulates phytochrome responses such as stem elongation, flowering, and other plant morphology changes. {HPS lights have more yellow/red which is why they lead to elongated stems, and great flowering} Red light can increase starch accumulation in some plants (that is like animals gaining fat, extra energy).
This 168 LED BULB simply screws into a standard household bulb socket (Medium Base/Edison Base). You simply supply your own standard socket and place bulb over top of your garden. Operates on common household voltage.
USE THIS BULB ALONE or to SUPPLEMENT your METAL HALIDE (MH) or FLUORESCENT Grow Light! Yes, you can use these bulbs all by themselves for the flowering stage of plant growth. You can also use them to supplement your Metal Halide (MH) or Fluorescent grow light fixture. MH and Fluorescent fixtures are excellent for growing plants but their spectrum is very high in the BLUE SPECTRUM and very defficient in the RED SPECTRUM. Add these RED L.E.D.'s to your existing MH system and create a more well balanced spectrum that is sure to increase yield and plant vigor. This bulb will help create explosive flowering!
Why use our LED GROW LIGHTS to grow plants?The basic idea is that a growing plant uses only a narrow band of the lighting spectrum for chlorophyll production. Up to now the only choice has been Sodium or Halide lights which both produce a very wide band of lighting and less than 10% of a Sodium or Halide lamps output is actually used by the plant.
With the advent of LED lighting, we can custom tailor the output of the lamp to match exactly the band of light required for Chlorophyll production!
What does all this mean?This means that almost 100% of the power input for our LED GROW LIGHT is used for plant production.
What are the other benefits?Another great benefit of the LED GROW LIGHT is the very small amount of heat produced. The LED GROW LIGHT operates completely cool to the touch and plants can actually grow right up to the fixture, try that with any Sodium or Halide lamp.
What is the benefit of lower heat levels?- No HEAT SIGNATURE detectable by infrared cameras.
- No fans required for cooling
- No heat damage to plants
- No high temperature lights to worry about
Also, the LED GROW LIGHT does not require a ballast and simply plugs into any standard household light bulb socket. *(socket not included)
The LED GROW LIGHT is manufactured using long life LED lights. These lights have a rated life of over 100,000 hours (there are 8,760 hours in a year).
The power use of one 168 piece LED GROW LIGHT bulb is approximately 13 watts each.
LEDs are nearly 100% efficient at plant growth! This is 10 times the efficiency of a Sodium or Halide light.
Light Emitting Diode (L.E.D.) technology is the absolute newest technology in plant growth! These lights represent the cutting edge of horticultural lighting. LED lights are currently being used by NASA for growing plants in outer space!
