Description

This Qee Technology 18W (12 x 1.5W LEDs) PAR38 LED grow light is the perfect alternative to older types of horticultural lights because it runs cooler, consumes less power, focuses light into a smaller area, is environmentally friendly (no lead or mercury), and is more durable and reliable. The ratio of red to blue LEDs is 10 red (625nm-660nm):2 blue (440nm-450nm) which promotes the rapid growth of plants thereby shortening the growth cycle. It’s also great for growing or perking up any houseplant.

Red and blue light is very important for plant growth. Phytochrome pigments absorb the red and far red portions of the light spectrum and regulate seed germination, root development, tuber and bulb formation, dormancy, flowering and fruit production. Blue light stimulates chlorophyll production more than any other color, encouraging thick leaves, strong stems and compact vegetative growth.

LED grow lights are used by home gardening enthusiasts, florists, nurseries, scientific researchers, universities, and even NASA uses LED grow light technology to grow plants in space! LED grow lights are used to grow orchids, roses, peppers, tomatoes, basil, lettuce, herbs, kale, spinach, wheat grass, broccoli, wildflowers, cucumbers, and many other types of fruits and vegetables. They are also great for growing or perking up any houseplant. LED grow lights are great for seedlings since they can be placed in tight spaces without worrying about excessive heat build-up. LED grow lights are also suitable for all stages of plant growth. LED grow lights are the most efficient plant lights available, and provide better results than Metal Halide (MH), HPS and HID lights, and use approximately 60%-80% less power. They are also more durable, last longer and have a lower attenuation rate over time. The time is now! Make the switch to LED grow lights!
