There are many different types can be used in the indoor gardening plant growth lights. LED grow lights use a combination of red and blue LED. They are usually provided on the panel, and placed in close plants. , You will see the HID high-intensity gas discharge MH, metal halide lamps and high pressure sodium lamp, high pressure sodium lamps, advertising lamps grown in a greenhouse, and all types of indoor plant growth. LED grow lights can also be used indoor plant lighting solutions better than before.

1) plant growth lights for growing plants faster than HPS. Various studies have shown that LED Grow Lights is a superior technology, when it comes to better, faster plant growth. For example, the University of Minnesota Department of Horticultural Science, a study comparing high-pressure sodium lamps and LED grow lights. Over seven weeks, they measured the average height of the two plants growing in two lights. Growth of plants, the use of LED lights, the end of the growth is much higher than the HPS. The height difference is not huge, but when you grow an indoor garden, every inch difference.

2) lamp lower cost, although the initial purchase price is often more expensive than the HPS lamp LED lamp light than the HPS, there is a large price difference is different growth lamp operating costs. Advanced LED Grow Light only one eighth the use of electricity to produce the same amount of light HPS grow lights, grow lights in the life you save much money. The tiny LED diodes can also be configured to provide a well-lit place to grow lights than traditional manufacturers.

3) the weight of the plant growth is more light than HID and high pressure sodium lamp, LED plant growth lights are quite a few lighter than other types of traditional develop lights. HID, MH and HPS lamps because of the need to use the ballast, so that they are normal. Reflective film, cast light on plant pool, but also can be used for high-pressure sodium lamp and others, to increase the number of devices. Since the lamp is suspended usually in plants in some way, the weight is an important consideration, particularly when the lamp must be periodically raised and to reduce plant maintenance work, such as watering, occurs, and a proper distance from the plant to the compliance. Some high-end LED grow lights, built-in fan, negate the need of air-cooled reflector and pipelines.

4) has the ability to change the light quality. The plants grow best in certain spectral plant stage, growth. The light of the seedlings, they need to grow up under HPS lamps in blue light strong, sturdy stems, when they grow up. Mature reproducibility and set fruit or flowers, plants need light in the red and orange spectrum, this must HPS lamps. You can find a HPS bulb for blue or red spectrum, but it does not have the ability to provide both the spectrum. This means that you will need to start a grow light bulbs, then it will need to be changed as the plants mature.
