Lighting 

The three most common varieties of lighting for indoor growing are HID lamps (the most prevalent for this application being: high pressure sodium and metal halide), Compact fluorescent lamps, and traditional Fluorescent lamps.

Incandescent and halogen lamps generate excessive heat per watt, with a low lumen to watt ratio.
 
High Intensity discharge lamps have the most efficacy in terms of Lumen (unit)s of light output vs. power input. Compact fluorescent are slightly less efficient than HID lamps, however they produce far less excess heat in comparison. Traditional fluorescent lamps generally do not produce enough concentrated light to be a primary light source for most indoor growing operations. Fluorescent and Compact Fluorescent are excellent light sources for young plants (seedlings). They are also excellent for supplementing the light generated by primary HID lamps.

~~~ Return Policy ~~~

A sensitive plant in a garden grew,
And the young winds fed it with silver dew,
And it opened its fan-like leaves to the light,
and closed them beneath the kisses of night.
 
~Percy Bysshe Shelley,
"The Sensitive Plant," 1820
HID Light facts
  • Light intensity decreases very quickly. Keeping lights close to the sun loving plant will greatly increase the amount of lumens, or energy, the plant can use.
  • To keep the room cool in the warmer climates the use of 'cool' shades and fans reduces the heat in the room considerably.
 JUST ASK!
  • There are many bulbs from various manufacturers. If you have a preference in Brand let us know. We will happily order it for you.
