NOTES
LED Grow Lights and Their Challenges:
Replacing traditional grow lights. LEDs are low energy devices (like fluorescent lights), and they must be closer to the plants than high energy sources (like HPS or MH lights).
But there's a trade off
between close and coverage. Because LEDs output a "cone" of light, closer means a decrease in coverage. So a balance must be attained between desired energy at the plant and coverage in square feet.
Some plants require higher energy
(plant closer to bar) and thus for coverage you'll need to use more bars in an offset stagger multiple bar configuration to increase coverage. Some plants require low energy to grow, so fewer bars at a greater distance are possible. LED-PlantBars may also be hung vertically within the foliage of a dense plant for additional energy (a big selling point as traditional lights cannot do this).
GARDENING TIPS FOR USING LEDTRONICS LED PAR38 GROW LAMPS
These tips come from proven experience and should be followed when possible to ensure success with LED professional grow lights. This information applies to both the use of individual light bars, and light bars mounted in multiple bar arrays.
Temperatures
Keep environmental temperatures in the range of 70°F – 80°F. (Lower temperatures = Slower plant growth.) You should also monitor root zone temperature as well.
Watering
DON’T over water your plants. (Less heat from light source = Less water loss to evaporation). (Over watering = Slow root development = Slow and stunted growth). Over watering will also cause nutrient uptake issues (you are feeding your plants, right?).
Watering rates using LED PAR38 GRO Lamps versus conventional white light: Water plants once and monitor the longer time it takes for them to run low on water to determine your particular plant specie's rate of water usage.
Keeping the root medium water saturated = No need for the plant to develop a larger root system = Stomata closure, slow and stunted growth, and symptoms of over watering.
Using a more porous medium = More oxygen to roots = Higher plant metabolism.
Nutrients and CO2
Start with a lower amount of nutrient (400-600ppm) or half the recommended amount.
When commercial growing: Monitor your CO2 levels. LED lights emit a large amount of absorbed light, which may require slight augmentation of CO2 levels (300-500ppm).
Lighting
Remember, it doesn’t look like much light to you, but it is a lot of light to your plants.
With fruiting plants: Reduced photoperiod = Plant stress = More flowering.
If your plants are grown indoors without supplemental light, some plants—such as tomatoes—may benefit from the addition of a single 60Watt light placed anywhere in the room with the plants. This provides a small amount of invisible infrared light which some plants find beneficial.
Don’t forget, your plants need to sleep just like we do, except plants prefer that the room be totally dark at night. Check on the internet or with a local nursery to find out the preferred light/dark period for the plants that you’ll be growing.
Safety
The light emitting diodes (LEDs) used in this product are very high intensity. Never look directly into the light at close distance, or for long periods of time.
