Marijuana Growing Supplemental LED Grow Lights With UV And IR Grow Lights

cryptochrome molecules, which absorbs UV and blue light, are present not only in plants, but in animals, and regulate the circadian rhythm. They're why you shouldn't stare at your phone before going to bed! In plants, cryptochromes mediate the directional growth toward a light source, in response to blue light. This is known as phototropism.

Cryptochromes do a lot of things, but the short story, is that increasing the blue content results in more compact plants, because the plant will focus more on root growth and branching, than on leaf elongation and stem growth.

Application

Think of what happens to your skin when you are exposed to the sun for long periods of time. It begins to burn and sweat. Plants are no different. UV light activates a plant’s defense mechanisms. UV causes plants to produce oils, antioxidant vitamins and flavonoids to protect themselves from the damaging effects of UV. These compounds produce the vibrant colors, smells and tastes of plants.

How Long Will My LED Grow Light Last?

Our LED grow light systems come standard with a 10-year or 100,000-hour factory warranty. We thermally and operationally test every fixture before shipment. In comparison to HID & HPS, you'll see around a 6 to 10 times difference in operational life-span.
