HOW TO CHOOSE A GROW LIGHT?

It is important to choose the right light that suits your requirements. Here are two important questions you should ask before chosing a grow light:

1. What type of plants will be grown under lights?
Different plants have different light requirements. Normally, taller plants will require more light in order to reach the lowers sections. Plants that have large flowers or fruits typically require more light than those which do not.

2. What is the size of the grow area?
Start by measuring the square footage of your garden area then consider the height of the plants that will be grown.



WHAT TYPE OF GROW LIGHT SHOULD I USE?

1. Full Spectrum Compact Fluorescents are ideal for starting seeds or cuttings or as spot lights for a single low light plant, such as orchids and other houseplants. They are the most energy efficient grow lights available.

2. T5 High Output Full Spectrum Lights have extremely high lumen per watt rating and high PAR value. This type of light is ideal for shorter plants, such as orchids, cacti and herbs. The T5 technology also provides a superior light during the vegetative phase of the plant.

Although more efficient than incandescent lights, fluorescents are still much less efficient than High Intensity Discharge (HID) light systems. Larger wattage systems will cover larger areas, and since these bulbs produce greater light intensity they are superior for growing taller plants.

3. Metal Halide (MH) and High Pressure Sodium (HPS) are the most common HID grow lights. MH bulbs emit a blue-white spectrum, which is more conductive for vegetative growth or starting seeds and clones. HPS bulbs are red-orange in the spectrum, which is ideal for the fruiting and flowering stage of a plant's development.

Looking for the Latest in Horticultural Lighting?
Come to Bustan for the Largest Selection of T5
High Output Fluorescent Lamps & Fixtures.


T5 high output lamps have extremely high lumen per watt rating: 5000 lumens per lamp.

Lamps have very low heat factor which allows the fixture to be hung very close to plant canopy, thus raising light levels.

The TEK-LIGHT and NEW WAVE fixtures are made of German 95% reflective aluminum. Light output is 300 percent higher in this reflector vs. a lamp with no reflector.

Fixtures are low profile, sleek and light to hang. Solid state electronic ballasts (no copper windings) do not emit heat, noise or vibration. Unique design places ballasts outside lamps (instead of above lamps as in competitive fixtures) for longer fixture life.

These high output fluorescent grow light fixtures come with your choice of lamps: A 6500 degree Kelvin cool lamp (promotes plant growth) or a 3000 degree Kelvin warm lamp (promotes flowering/budding in plants).
