When is the best time to add light to plants with LED grow lights?
Plants need light just as we cannot do without food. Photosynthesis depends on sunlight, which provides organic matter for plant growth. For growers, sunlight is uncontrollable, and there is often insufficient light. LED grow lights are needed for supplementary light, so when is the best time for LED grow lights to supplement light for plants?
In order to solve the impact of insufficient light on plant growth, people choose to use LED grow supplement lights instead of the sun to supplement light for plants. The effect of LED grow lights is self-evident, not only can meet the photosynthesis of plants, but also increase plant yield and harvest faster.
But in the process of using, we must pay attention to the use time of the LED grow light, proper use time and correct use method, so as to bring more unexpected effects.
Plant supplement light is to replace the sun to supplement the light when the light is insufficient. Under normal conditions of sunlight, the plant can be supplemented with light for 5-6 hours in the morning and evening when the light conditions are weak. The sun can be used during the day. Add light to plants. If there is insufficient light on rainy or cloudy days, you can use LED grow lights all day long, but also pay attention to leave time for plants to rest at night.
When using LED grow lights, you should also pay attention to the light requirements of different types of plants. If it is a plant that loves light and requires a long time, you must pay attention to the light time when using LED grow lights.
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 sunlight 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.
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 LED grow lights. Strong in summer and weak in winter, set the lighting time with LED grow lights according to local conditions. There is a big difference in the light that can be received for indoor and outdoor planting. It takes 16-18 hours to fill up the light with LED grow lights for the whole time. Outdoor plants use LED grow lights to fill up the light according to the difference in the illuminance of sunlight.
No matter what plant you plant, you must first understand the light required for planting, and then use LED grow lights to supplement and dim light according to the planting environment to give plants better light and growth status.
