The ideal spectrum of growth will largely depend on your application and the goals you want to achieve. So, an optimum spectrum does not really exist, because various plants and cultivars can have different responses to different wavelengths. We have seen this in crops such as cannabis and roses, where growing different species under the same wavelengths and environmental conditions resulted in very different growth responses. The best way to find out how your plant will perform, is to set up a trial area to test how different species will respond.
Since growth characteristics can be manipulated by various spectrums of light, you need to know what growth characteristics are most important to you. Since most growers want to ultimately achieve greater yields and quality, ní gá speictream solais speisialaithe needed. The spectrum of our HortiLED Top RW(MB), has been designed le haghaidh optimized yields and increased plant mass in iarratais cheaptha teasa. The HortiLED Top Dspeictream aylight, is specially designed for sole source, faoi dhíon applications―to be used throughout all stages of the growth cycle, as plants can take the wavelengths they need as they need them.
D'fhéadfá a bheith ag fiafraí freisin an bhfuil speictream éagsúil ag teastáil uait le haghaidh céimeanna éagsúla fáis, mar shampla do thimthriallta fásra in aghaidh bláthanna. Unlike, HID luminaires, where we would typically recommend CMH (ceramic metal halide) or MH (metal halide) luminaires for vegetative and HPS (high pressure sodium) luminaires le haghaidh bláthanna cycles, you do not necessarily need two different spectrums when it comes to LEDs. What is more important during these stages, is light duration (such as photoperiod to elicit certain responses), and light intensity. As plants move from propagation to vegetative to flowering, light intensity should be increased d'fhonn achieve maximum yields, quality and productivity, as light intensity is highly correlated to yields and overall quality.
Tóg amach:
LED luminaires should deliver a light quality optimized for fás agus táirgeacht plandaí―while still allowing for flexibility of crop cineálacha agus timthriallta fáis, and a comfortable working environment. Go hiondúil, if you are in a greenhouse, you should be using luminaires stiúir le optimized red/blue speictream, since they are most efficient at converting electricity into useable light for plants. If you are in a sole source indoor grow, a broad spectrum LED luminaire, atá optamaithe do gach céim d'fhás plandaí agus a dhéanann timpeallacht oibre iontach d'oibrithe, like our light HortiLED Top Daylight.
