3LED Grow Lights for Hydroponics
Using the right LED grow lights can be one of the
most crucial choices you make in Hydroponics. You
can feed your plants the perfect nutrient
balance, have the right temperature, the right
humidity and fill the grow room with the right
amount of air, but without proper LED grow lights
none of this really matters too much, if at all.
Light is one of the most important factors when
growing plants indoors and having the right
spectrums is just as important.
4The Advantages of Using LED Grow Lights
LED grow lights operate using a lower wattage and
put our more lumens per watt than Metal Hallide
(MH) and High Pressure Sodium (HPS) grow lamps.
As a result they actually save on power. There is
no need for using ballasts and reflectors or
running cables in between since all the
electronics are contained within the unit itself.
Simply plug them in hang them up and you're good
to grow! The low profile of LED grow lights means
that they can be used efficiently in tight spaces
such as a cupboard grows and grow tents. LED's
operate at a lower temperature which means that
controlling the temperature of your grow room is
also a lot easier.
5Grow Light Basics
All green plants require light to perform
photosythesis, during which special cells convert
the energy contained in the light into sugars. In
the process, plants give off oxygen. Plants vary
widely in how much light they need to thrive
from low-light houseplants, such as dracaenas, to
fruiting edibles, such as tomatoes, that need
much brighter light. Seedlings require lots of
bright light, and when they don't receive enough
they get weak and leggy. In most cases, even the
sunniest windowsill won't provide the intensity
or duration of light they need, especially in
winter.

7Different Plants, Different Needs
As the technology progresses hydroponic lighting
has come a long way! A few lighting examples that
are commonly used in indoor growing are
LED (Light emitting diodes)
LED technology has been around for quite some
time there are many mixed reviews as many of
them read very well on paper. The LEDs usually
come in as an all in one, offering compete
spectrums,3-5W Diodes (some even have 30W COBs
mounted in the center) and are available in
multiple wattages, most professional growers only
ever use them as supplementary lights in flower
alongside a HPS.

Hydroponic Garden
- Factors to Consider When Choosing a Grow Light
- Asking yourself these questions can help you make
the best choice. - What types of plants will you be growing?
- Will you grow year-round or just start seeds in
spring? - How tall will the plants get?
- Where will you put the light in your living
space, or hidden away in the basement? - Should the light be mobile (e.g. on casters)?
