5050/60 Water Resistant Blue LED Grow Light Strip - 5m

Description

The 5050 Water Resistant Blue LED Grow Light Strip helps your plant grow greener and stronger in the vegetation stage. 

At a low intensity, such as that typically used to deliver photoperiodic lighting (1-2 μmol∙m–2∙s–1), blue light does not regulate flowering of most daylength-sensitive crops. However, at a higher intensity (such as 20 μmol∙m–2∙s–1 or higher), blue light can promote flowering of long-day plants and inhibit flowering of short-day plants.

Radiation with shorter wavelengths (blue/UV) stimulates the production of compounds that can influence leaf colouration. For example, in the absence of blue/UV radiation, plants that have purplish leaves outdoors may have green leaves. In some leafy greens crops such as lettuce, blue/UV also increases the production of healthful compounds such as antioxidants and some vitamins. Thus for these crops, delivery of blue/UV radiation prior to marketing can increase crop quality attributes such as leaf colouration and nutrition.

Please Note: LED lights produce less heat than traditional Metal Halide and High-Pressure Sodium resulting in less heat and more light. This, however, does not make LEDs more heat resistant and these LED strips would need external cooling when used in hot environments.
