HPS lighting Is still by far dominant with growers. The biggest reason for this is that it has worked well so far. If something works well, most people will not try something new quickly, not at all if you have to make an investment in an LED breeding light. HPS lighting is cheap in the purchase, which is why an investment in a greenhouse complex or grow room remains low.
We understand the way of thinking of these best growers and gardeners, but it is not correct. The LED grow lamp is a better investment and earned back faster than you think. See here 10 reasons why you should actually switch directly to LED breeding lighting.
The biggest advantage of LED grow lights Is it low power consumption. LED lamps use only 50% of the energy that HPS needs for the same result. That means that you save 50% on the electricity bill.
It is expected that the efficiency of LED grow lights will increase in the coming years. As a result, the results are better without more power being used. The payback time of an LED grow lamp is 2 to 3 years.
It has already been shown through many tests that LED grow lights have better results than HMS or other high -pressure lamps. These results are particularly visible in the growth phase of the plant. The growth of your plant is on average 15% faster with an LED growing lamp. An effective light spectrum can also achieve better results in the flowering phase.
Due to the faster growth with LED lighting, the plants and flowers often become larger, up to 10%on average. The reason for this is that the light spectrum of the LED lamp ensures that more photosynthesis takes place in the plant. This creates more leaves and also more fruit or flour.
High pressure radium, sodium lamps often last only a year, that is because this lighting uses burning to give light. That shortens the lifespan enormously.
Most LED grow lights have a lifespan of 50,000 burning hours, with normal use that means that you do not have to make a new purchase in the coming 8 years. That makes a difference! After an LED lamp is recovered in 3 years, there will be pure winnings in the next 5 years.
One of the greater benefits of LED grow lights is that little heat is released. In most greenhouse complexes, heat must be removed to keep the climate for plants and flowers optimal. This excess heat is not available with LED.
A LED lamp can also hang closer on the plant, which increases the efficiency of the lighting. This also saves on watering water and food, always the plant consumes less.
High -pressure lamps often consist of complex systems with a reflector, ballast and vice equipment.
Most LED grow lights in us Product Range His plug & play with only one plug that can be done in every socket. An LED lamp is one system that can be hung everywhere and can function without power current. Never again with installing!
By using multiple LEDs in one lamp and special lenses that break the light, LED grow lights can often display a wider surface. You can also hang the lamps closer on the plant because the LED lamps hardly get hot. In this way the plant can benefit even more from the intensity of the light.
With most high -pressure breeding lighting it is not possible to dim the light. You always use the full brightness and therefore also use the maximum wattage (and power consumption) of the lamp.
The latest technology in the field of LED lighting has Active Dimming, so that the power consumption of the lamp also decreases when dimmed. Dimming from LED has become increasingly easier, nowadays that is possible at the grow lamp itself, with a remote control or even with an app on your phone. So very smart, such a LED lamp.
By adding UV Light and White Light (+6000K), fungi and bad bacteria that affect your plants or flowers are less likely. In combination with less heat, there is less chance that fungi can thrive in the breeding ground and leaves of your plants. Also take a look at This article about Spint.
The prices of LED grow lights have been falling for years. The reason for this is that more LED is used. As a result, production can be scaled up and the costs fall. We see that again in the prizes.
Fortunately we keep our prices up-to-date, and you always pay too little
You can already hear it ... So it is becoming increasingly interesting to switch to LED breeding lighting!
