When you buy 600wLED grow lights, you will hear that the 600wLED grow lights have the advantages of energy saving, environmental protection, long life and high efficiency. This is an indisputable fact, but some of its performance has been exaggerated. The three common misunderstandings when purchasing 600wLED grow lights are as follows:
(1) The life of 600wLED grow light is not equal to working time
The lifespan of LED grow lights from most manufacturers can reach more than 50,000 hours. This life is the theoretical life that the lamp can use. The factors of light decay and technology replacement are not explained.
The light decay of 600wLED grow lights includes many aspects. On the one hand, it is the lamp chip itself, the brightness of any lighting lamp will decrease after a long time working. On the other hand, accessories, including wires, panels, lenses, covers, etc., will age after a long period of time. Even if a new LED chip is replaced, it is impossible to achieve the best plant lighting effect as before.
(2) The higher the power, the greater the brightness, the better the effect
Power refers to the power consumption of the 600w LED grow light in a certain period of time, and has no direct relationship with the light supplement effect of the 600w LED grow light. The key factors that we should pay attention to are workmanship, quality and effectiveness. Brightness is the definition of light perception by the human eye. The perception of light by plants is calculated based on the illuminance lux. It is not that the brighter the human eye feels, the better the effect of the 600wLED grow light. We'd better choose different LED chip ratios according to different stages of plant growth to achieve the best growth of plants at different stages.
(3) 600wLED grow light is a cold light source, which will not burn plants
600wLED grow lights are cold light sources, compared to other plant growth lights. All products related to electricity generate heat. At present, there is no photoelectric conversion source that can achieve 100% photoelectric conversion, and more or less of the electric energy will be converted into heat energy, and the same is true for LED grow lights.
Low-power LED plant growth lights can illuminate plants at a close distance, especially during the germination stage. However, if the 600wLED plant growth light is attached to the plant, the heat radiated to the plant for a long time will also burn the plant. When the power is high, you must use an air conditioner or fan to dissipate heat.
There are many aspects to pay attention to when using 600wLED grow lights
1. Pay attention to the distance between the 600wLED grow light and the plant when filling light. Because the lighting will emit heat, even the cold light source LED grow light also has it, it is best not to be close to the plant, and to leave a proper distance, so as to achieve an excellent light supplement without harming the plant.
2. Measure the floor area. Multiply the length by the width to get the square meters of the planting area. You can make the right choice based on how much power to provide per square meter, that is, how many 600w LED grow lights are installed per square meter. In this way, each lamp can be evenly distributed, so that the outer edge will receive strong light, so that the light will be more uniform, and the growth of plants will be more effective.
3. The time of supplementary light is determined according to the degree of light liking of the plant. Almost all living things need to rest, so it is impossible to use 600wLED grow lights to fill the plants with light, which will have a bad effect on the plants. Studies and experiments have proved that the best time for plants to add light is controlled at about 12 hours, and it is necessary to leave enough time for plants to rest for 4-6 hours.
For light-loving plants, it is necessary to use LED growth lights to supplement light for plants at 6:00-10:00 and 17:00-00:00, because 10:00--17:00 is the sunlight that meets their growth needs Time period, so it takes about 11 hours for the plants to fill in the light.
For plants that do not like light, they can meet their growth needs when there is sunlight. The time for supplementing light with LED grow lights only needs to be set according to the local sunrise and sunset time, and the light supplement time should avoid plant rest time as much as possible.
Set according to the planting environment. The planting environment mentioned here includes the difference between the north and the south, the difference between spring, summer, autumn and winter, and the difference between indoor and outdoor sunlight. Regional and seasonal differences can be set according to the light law, the closer to the equator, the stronger it is to set the lighting time with 600wLED grow lights. Strong in summer and weak in winter, set the lighting time with 600wLED grow lights according to local conditions. There is a big difference in the light that indoor and outdoor plants can accept. It takes 16-18 hours to fill up the light with LED grow lights in the whole time. Outdoor plants use LED grow lights to fill up the light according to the difference in the illuminance of sunlight.
4. Security issues
The blue light of 600wLED grow light is the same as other electronic products, which is harmful to human eyes. This aspect needs to be paid attention to, so you need to wear anti-blue goggles to protect your eyes.
The harm of blue light:
1. Blue light will aggravate the disease in the macular area of the retina;
2. Blue light can cause damage to the fundus after cataract surgery;
3. Blue light can cause blurred vision and cause visual fatigue;
4. Blue light can cause glare;
5. Blue light can inhibit the secretion of melatonin and disturb sleep.
The first thing we have to do when purchasing 600wLED grow lights is to determine a plant light that is really suitable for our plant growth from the perspective of plant growth needs. Pay attention to the lighting distance, installation distribution, working time, etc. when using 600wLED grow lights.
