Can ordinary led lights be used as plant fill lights?


The effect of normal white LED lights on plants is minimal.

When filling light for plants, it is best to choose a professional fill light.

Plants have certain requirements for light quality and light intensity. The use of professional supplementary lights can emit specific red and blue light that plants need, so as to provide a reasonable supplementary light environment for plants, promote the growth and development of plants, and promote growth. The effect is not comparable to ordinary lighting.

I believe that many small partners are blindly using ordinary LED lights to fill the light for plants, which not only wastes time and energy, but also the plants are getting weaker and weaker. Then I will introduce the plant fill lights in detail.

1. The difference between ordinary LED lights and plant fill lights

The main difference between ordinary LED lights and plant fill lights is that the spectrum is different, and the spectrum determines whether plants can efficiently photosynthesize.

Ordinary LED lights are mainly blue light chips and white light phosphors. The wavelength of the light generated is not the wavelength required for plant growth. Using ordinary LED lights to illuminate plants cannot promote plant growth.

The LED plant growth light uses scientifically proportioned red and blue wavelengths to irradiate plants to promote photosynthesis of plants, thereby promoting plant growth.

2. Are LED plant fill lights really useful?

Light environment is one of the important physical environmental factors that are indispensable for plant growth and development. Controlling plant morphogenesis through light quality regulation is an important technology in the field of facility cultivation.

LED plant fill light is a kind of lamp that uses LED as the light source and needs sunlight according to the law of plant growth.

LED grow lights can help shorten the growth cycle of plants, because the light source of this light is mainly composed of red and blue light sources, using the most sensitive light bands for plants, the red wavelengths use 620-630nm and 640-660nm, and the blue wavelengths use 450-460nm and 460-470nm.

Let plants promote the differentiation of multiple lateral branches and buds during the growth process, accelerate the growth of roots, stems and leaves, accelerate the synthesis of plant carbohydrates and vitamins, and shorten the growth cycle.

The research results of a large number of applications of LEDs in plant facility cultivation environments show that LED grow lights are especially suitable for artificial light-controlled plant facility cultivation environments. Cultivation of special plants.


3. What kind of plant fill light should be selected?

We want fresh and nutritious vegetables, beautiful flower arrangements, and fragrant herbs all year round, enabling farms to sprout in big cities and even at home, and ongoing light research, sensor technology and cloud computing will allow horticultural professionals to satisfy The growing demands of today's consumers.

As a leader in lighting technology, GMKJ LED is a leader in factory lighting, from LED grow lights to complete solutions.

GMKJ LED works closely with industry and research professionals to provide products and systems that optimize crop growth, providing reliable supplies to industries such as retail food and flower markets, food processing facilities and pharmaceuticals.


We know that ams Osram has four areas of expertise in horticultural lighting. The first is vertical farms, which provide lighting systems for vertical farms, where a suitable lighting scheme can affect everything from plant growth patterns to their appearance and nutritional content. growth and development.


Second is research, where we explore how light sources affect plant growth and development. Our research lamps can provide tailored lighting solutions for specific plant types. Ams Osram's technology has been adopted by NASA and several medicinal plant farms.

Another home application, you can easily grow healthy and delicious lettuce, herbs and vegetables at home using the Plant Cube. This smart box can automatically form the best growing conditions for seeds according to the type of seeds buried.


Finally, for greenhouse applications, we supply horticultural lighting systems to commercial growers all over the world, so we combine leading horticultural lighting with expertise in technology, sensors and connectivity. According to the news, its sensors provide horticultural lighting. For fast and accurate spectral measurements: The AS7343 sensor can perform chromatographic analysis of liquids or materials, supporting horticultural applications such as the measurement of plant chlorophyll concentration.


In terms of consumer-grade plant lighting, users can use home plant lighting to cultivate crops and food by themselves, without leaving home and being self-sufficient. The purple products achieve state-of-the-art efficacy and brightness, and are available in standard package sizes of 3.5 mm x 3.5 mm and 3.0 mm x 3.0 mm, enabling cost-effective horticultural lighting solutions.
