Thanks to advancements in technology, we now have LED grow lights that are more competitive compared to traditional grow lights from HPS or CMH.
There are several factors to consider if you want to invest in led grow light, which have been narrowed down to 9 different considerations：
- PPF
- PPFD
- High Efficacy (Not Wattage)
- Full-Spectrum Light
- High quality lamp beads
- Third-Party Certifications
- Product Warranty
- Competitive Pricing
- Fast Shipping Time
Let’s take a deeper look at these factors and determine why they are important when choosing LED grow lights.
High PPF
PPF is the term used to define the measurement of PAR. This can help you determine exactly how much light your grow lighting system produces can be used by plants for photosynthesis.
High PPFD & Even Footprint
PPFD is a density measurement which is expressed as micromoles per square meter, and it differs from PPF in that PPF is only micromoles per second, but PPFD is micromoles per second per square meter. This is because we want to know how many photosynthetic photons fall on a square meter per second.
A grow light may have a good PPFD two feet above the center of the light, if the lights on the sides are much lower, you’ll get a big gain in the center, but a steep drop off on the sides. Spider Farmer offers a PPFD MAP showing PAR light levels for various surface areas and different suspension heights. This is very beneficial for getting the best coverage for your specific situation.
High Efficacy
Efficacy measures how efficiently a light converts power (watts) into light. The higher the efficacy, the better. Higher power efficiency allows you to save on electricity bills without sacrificing light output.
Full-Spectrum Light
A full-spectrum LED grow light means your grow light closely resembles light from the sun. This helps maximize full plant growth by including all colors (wavelengths) of light, as each color All contribute to different aspects of plant growth.
High Quality Diodes
Samsung’s plant-centric spectrum LEDs for horticulture lightings offer the most energy-efficient solutions with industry-leading PPE. Unrivaled in quality they enable growers to cultivate more nutritious plants while saving energy.
Many brands claim that they cooperate with Samsung, but they actually use inferior diodes, you can click the link below to see the LED grow light brands that Samsung cooperates with
