The five pillars essential for plant growth are temperature, moisture, nutrition, air and light

Temperature: Temperature is a relatively intuitive factor that affects plant growth. It has a great effect on photosynthesis of plants. If the temperature is too high, the plant will wither if it can't bear it; if the temperature is too low, the plant will stop various metabolisms and eventually be frozen to death by frostbite .

Moisture: We all know that water is the transporter in the plant. Any substance in the plant needs water to be transported. If there are not enough transport workers, the plant will definitely not grow normally. If there are too many transport workers, just like a traffic jam, the plant will also bear it. Can't stay.

Nutrition: It includes various minerals and fertilizers needed for plant growth, as well as various materials consumed by plant respiration and photosynthesis, which are also indispensable.

Air: The air environment is also an important factor leading to the quality of plants, and then the air composition, the most important of which is the concentration and ratio of oxygen and carbon dioxide, which is also a factor that greatly affects the photosynthesis and respiration of plants.

Combining the conditions required for the growth of various plants mentioned above, the right time, the right place and the right people are available, and there is only one engine-light.

The quality of light, the intensity of light, and the duration of illumination determine the growth cycle of plants.

Plants grow in the open-air nature. Each plant has formed its own photoperiod gene. However, due to various uncontrollable natural factors, their true growth talents have not been fully excavated. LED plant lights bring plants from outdoors. Indoors, various growth conditions can be completely controlled manually, which thoroughly activates the growth cells of plants, and adjusts the photoperiod of plants through LED plant lights, thereby affecting plant growth.

First of all, plants, like people, need exercise, work, and rest. Therefore, when using LED Strip Grow Lights to fill the plants with light, you must also control the time. Generally, it is recommended that the plant's light time be controlled between 12 and 16 hours to facilitate Allow sufficient time for the plants to rest to ensure the efficiency of the plant’s daily work.

The quality of light also has a very obvious influence on the growth of plants at various stages. For example, flowering and fruiting plants need sufficient red light during the period of flowering and fruit setting. If the red light is not enough, no matter how great the light intensity is, the desired effect will not be achieved. Influencing the flowering and fruit setting rate of plants, if the various lights of plants can be matched in proportion to supplement light according to plant needs, the effect will be completely different, not only can shorten the plant growth cycle, but also increase plant yield and quality. This is also the reason for the emergence of plant lights and the reason why LED Full Spectrum Grow Lights replace traditional plant growth lights.

At present, the plant lighting LED Grow Lights beads are mainly red light beads, blue light beads, white light beads and full spectrum lamp beads. The reason why these spectrum beads are used is because countless experiments have shown that plant growth needs the most The light is red and blue. The white light of the LED Garden Grow Lights for Plants is to supplement other spectral components that may be needed for plant growth. The spectrum emitted by the full-spectrum LED plant lamp is mainly red and blue, and the light quality is important for callus. The temptation and the differentiation of organs also have a significant impact. The red spectrum plays a particularly important role when the plant blooms and bears fruit.

When the time and light quality are reasonable, you need to use LED plant lights to control the light intensity. Studies have shown that light intensity has a very important impact on plant cell proliferation and organ differentiation, that is, it has a very important impact on plant growth. Different light intensity affects all stages of plant growth. The initial stage of plant growth does not need to be too strong The light can meet the needs of plant germination and growth. With the growth of plants, the light intensity should be appropriately increased, which is very important for the healthy and neat degree of seedlings. When the plants bloom and bear fruit, Best Indoor Grow Lights directly affects the flowering period and fruit setting Rate also determines the yield and quality of this plant.

If the light intensity is not enough, the photosynthesis and respiration of plants will not even be equal. It is even more impossible to think of plant growth. If the light intensity is too strong and the light saturation point is too much, it is a waste of electricity and there is no need. , So the most ideal value state is to control the light intensity around the light saturation point so that the plants can grow healthily and at the fastest speed.

Therefore, the decisive factors related to light in the plant growth cycle can be measured by the following formula:

Plant growth cycle = light intensity + light time + light quality

The Optic Led Grow Lights satisfies the above three light conditions very well to shorten or adjust the plant growth cycle.

Different plant growth and development require different light formulas, so corresponding measurement techniques and instruments are needed to accurately measure the optical parameters of the light environment to determine whether they meet the growth requirements of the corresponding plants, and select the appropriate light source for the plants to grow Is more perfect.

In view of the status quo that general spectral illuminance meters cannot meet the requirements of plant lighting measurement, in order to solve industry problems, Yuanfang Information has launched a professional measurement equipment specially designed for precise measurement and analysis of plant lighting-PLA-20 plant lighting special analyzer, namely It is measured based on spectroscopy, and can be widely used for on-site monitoring of light radiation during plant growth in plant factories, soilless cultivation, greenhouses, etc., such as light analysis, monitoring, research and communication during plant growth.

In addition to measuring general illuminance, irradiance, chromaticity coordinates, color temperature, color rendering index and other parameters, PLA-20 can also accurately obtain photosynthetic photon flux density, photosynthetic radiation (radiation) illuminance, and chlorophyll A/B weighted radiation Parameters such as intensity, far-red light irradiance.
