Many people are familiar with the different colors of the spectrum, and they are most suitable for different stages of plant development. Violet/blue light (400-500nm) is critical to the vegetation stage, and orange/red light (600-700nm) is critical to the flowering stage.
600w LED plant light far red and infrared
At the far end of the spectrum (>700nm), you will find far-infrared and infrared wavelengths of light. Far-red light and infrared light have long wavelengths and very little energy. Infrared wavelengths are invisible to the human eye and can only be felt in the form of heat. We know that blue and red light are most suitable for plant development, but research conducted in 1957 showed that combining blue and red light with far red/infrared light (700-760nm) is due to the Emerson effect. Protein phytochromes are the only known receptors that are sensitive to far red/infrared wavelengths. Plants use 600w LED plant lights to adjust when the plants switch from the vegetation state to the flowering state, and the flowering time due to the length of daylight or the time exposed to artificial light.
The right amount of far-red light and infrared light can also be very effective in promoting the healthy growth of stems, proper pitch, and more flowers and fruits. Excessive infrared radiation can also be a problem, because most of the infrared radiation is felt as heat when planting. Excessive infrared radiation can cause plants to stretch to plant nodes, discolor the leaves and even kill plants. Choosing a 600wLED plant light with an appropriate amount of far red light and infrared light is the key to the healthy and natural growth of plants.
The advantages of 600wLED plant light infrared on plant growth
Due to the Emerson effect, the main advantage of infrared light may be increased PAR. With high photosynthesis rate, plants get more energy to make them bigger and stronger. For plants, more infrared may mean higher yields because it gets excess energy from more photosynthesis. Due to the phytochrome plant protein, infrared light may be able to switch the cannabis plant from the vegetative stage to the flowering stage faster.
Infrared lighting skills of 600wLED plant light
You must ensure that the 600wLED plant light you use has the correct ratio of infrared light to red light. If your 600wLED plant lights have the wrong proportions, then your plants may grow too tall to stay healthy, or they may feel too hot to grow. And it is best not to use IR during the germination stage.
600wLED plant light ultraviolet (UV)
Ultraviolet rays are composed of light in three different wavelength ranges. UVC (200-280nm) has the shortest wavelength and the most energy, but it may put the most stress on plants and human skin, cause sunburn, and is very harmful to human eyes. Fortunately, for humans and plants, atmospheric absorption eliminates most of the short-wave UVC light.
UVB (280-315nm) has a short wavelength and high energy, which can also cause sunburn on the human body and plants. UVB destroys the proteins and nucleic acids in plant cells, leading to a decrease in metabolism and a decrease in the number of flowers. UVB can also have a positive effect on plants. Hemp produces its own sunscreen in the form of trichomes to cope with the stress and sunburn from UVB wavelengths. The higher the trichome production, the higher the THC, CBN and CBD levels.
UVA and near-ultraviolet light (315-400nm) have the longest ultraviolet light wavelength, which is very beneficial to plant development. UVA has also been shown to increase plant yields in the 380nm range. The absorption spectrum is the wavelength range of light absorbed by green chlorophyll for photosynthesis. Exposing plants to UVA light can also inhibit mold growth and fungal development.
The benefits of 600wLED plant light UV on plant growth
Photomorphogenesis can benefit plant growth in many ways. Ultraviolet rays help make plants more resistant to pests, stress, and disease. Ultraviolet rays can strengthen plants and help them become stronger. The most important thing is that 600wLED plant light ultraviolet rays help plants photosynthesize faster. In a study, scientists found that exposure to UV-A light increases the size, growth, and dry weight of leaves. This means that UV light can increase yield. Perhaps the most exciting effect of ultraviolet light on plants is the increase in resin production. As UV rays can be destructive, plants increase the number of trichomes on their surface to protect them.
600wLED plant light UV lighting tips
The grower will use supplemental UV for 2 hours a day during the last three weeks of the flowering period. It is important that no more than 4 kJ of UV per square meter per day. Ultraviolet rays are also beneficial for the latter half of the plant stage. Ultraviolet rays can help strengthen plant growth.
The 600w LED plant light combines a strong and efficient PAR output with target spectrum including UVA and far red/infrared light. The 600wLED plant light includes UBA diodes in the 380nm spectral range, which can promote the robust yield of most plant types, as well as the production of high terpenes, THC and CBD from cannabis plants. It also provides far red/c IR in the 760 nm range, which is very suitable for robust stem growth, proper pitch, more flowers and fruits. This combination provides you with the most productive and healthy plants with more frequent blooms and larger and more abundant flowers.
