Some research, growing forums and people are saying that LED's are fine for supplemental lighting but do not have enough power to grow plants successfully to the budding or flowering stage. Other comments; LED's are fine for vegetative growth and cannot produce enough light to give the plant sufficient energy to fruit, flower or bud up in any bulk; that plants produced are “leggy” and spindly and the fruits and flowers are lack luster as compared to other types of light.
The answer is simple these studies are NOT using enough LED's. Tall, spindly or “leggy” plants are light starved. The solution: use more LED LIGHT!
Our 250 Watt LED can provide the light needed to get the results not seen with other LED products on the market. Designed, engineered and manufactured in Northern California our light is engineered for superior quality with a 50,000 hour 5 year warranty. For those plant types that have large fruits or flowers our 250 Watt LED system will out- perform a 600 Watt HID or HPS while using 50 to 70 percent less electricity. For house plants, sprouts, micro-greens, small bloom flowers such as orchids, our 250 Watt LED system will act like a traditional 1000 watt system. Keep in mind that efficiency is more important than power, meaning bigger is not always better. Consider this, light producing the best spectrum for your plants is based on PAR watts or photosynthetic active radiation watts, and not lumens which is a measure of light designed for the human eye not plants. For those people used to measuring lumens for plant growth you may want to read that again.
*This is a commercial grade product, and NOT to be confused with imitators.
The September 2008 issue of Maximum Yield states,
“A confusing misconception often perceived amongst many cultivators is the idea that more lumens equals more yield. Think of lumens as a measurement of the amount of light observed by the naked eye, and not used by the plant. Depending on the situation, brighter light with an obscure spectrum may not prove as proficient as weaker light with a balanced plant specific growth spectrum.”
Either way LED’s are the wave of the future. With power savings of 50 to 70 percent, the indoor horticulturist cannot afford to not begin to upgrade their older outdated electrical systems. The power levels and light spectrum generated from our system creates radically fast growth and the unit stays very cool in the growing area. This cool indoor environment has three distinct advantages. First, the cool running lights eliminate high heat grow rooms which eliminates any thermal footprint. Second, the need for expensive ventilation is eliminated, which also lowers the users overall electrical footprint. And lastly, the plants can grow just inches above the light source without any fear of scorching. We all know what happens if a ventilation system fails or breaks down. Growing is thus greatly simplified, no heat signature. And for users that are doing hydroponics there is less evaporation and you may see a reduction in your liquid nutrient bill.
Due to the lack of quality in the design, engineering and manufacturing process of many LED units on the market, people are having expectations that are not being met. Our 250 Watt system answers that call with a product of superior design and quality. In order to get great results using only LED's, a unit has to be designed with components and circuitry that can stay cool while emitting the electrical output needed to achieve optimum performance and brightness of the LED.
Our Solid State 250 Watt LED system uses a unique custom designed thermal management system and 5 watt Phillips Luxeon wide angle LED’s. This combination allows for the LED to achieve its optimum brightness so as to provide the light density needed for healthy fat plants. As compared to other LED grow light systems which use only one watt bulbs, one watt LED bulbs cannot achieve the brightness needed to really saturate plants with the light needed for prolific growth. LED grow lights have distinct advantages over traditional indoor plant lighting systems. The light spectrum utilized in LED’s have an absorption rate of 95 to 98 percent compared to the 9 to 12 percent absorption rate that is common with traditional lights. Our light system provides 250 PAR watts per unit.

[FONT=Times New Roman,serif]“LED light bulbs have been field tested to last up to a decade or more. With current leading industry standard lamps reaching upwards of two-hundred dollars and needing replacement annually, LED’s have very profitable gains in aspect of lamp maintenance, replacement and energy consumption. It literally takes a fraction of the amount of energy needed from standard HID fixtures to operate an LED alternative. In theory, when a LED lighting fixture is purchased, the lamps should have years of future use. The spectral output of LED’s is available in plant specific spectrums minimizing wasted broad-spectrum light that plants do not absorb. Every phase of plant growth is attainable under LED’s nullifying the need for different lamps and wattages during particular growth periods. Heat emissions from LED’s are minuscule so lighting fixtures can be placed closely to canopies without the risk of burning foliage from hot lamps and rapid leaf transpiration. LED light bulbs provide drastic energy savings and prolonged bulb life. If the yield per watt is similar to that of the lower wattage systems like 400 and 600-watts, multiple LED units utilized correctly in the appropriate area could end up saving a gardener a significant sum in the long run.”[/FONT]
Depending on your plant variety, two to three of our 250 Watt LED units will cover a 4x8 ft growing area, producing a rapid 'rain forest’ like growth cycle with quality fruits and or flowers. This is the LED effect but only if the LED unit has enough raw LED power and the circuitry to handle the electrical current to achieve peak performance. Be advised you may have to use more LED's than you have been lead to believe in order to the raise certain varieties of plants that really appreciate lots of extra sun light.
Not all plants are the same and some plants just require MUCH more light. If the sun worshiping plant varieties in your garden do get enough LED light the results will be absolutely hyper-prolific growth and fruiting like you have never seen before! If your plants are not getting the light they deserve then with the money saved on electrical bills alone buy more LED power. The results can be achieved and at a cost savings on electric bills regardless. Save your money on expensive fertilizers and upgrade into extra LED's and you will get results. Additional savings can be earned by never having to buy replacement bulbs.
For the traditionalist who isn’t concerned with reducing expenditures and environmental footprint and wants full spectrum, use our light system as a supplement. Our system recommends replacing every other 600 watt system with one 250 watt LED system unit and two LED system units for replacement of a 1000 watt. Once again plant types may vary upon replacement needs. And for the non believer in current LED technology: replace or test your current 1000 watt system with four of our 250 Watt system units and let the systems show the results. Growers will be thrilled and amazed at the performance watt for watt.
Due to our systems' unique spectrum dials, users can now manipulate the LED light according to the plants needs. Providing excess blue light creates faster greening and stem growth while enriching dark chlorophyll production and excess red light promotes fruiting, seeding and flowering since the plants think winter is coming. The Sun puts off more red and less blue light in the fall so manipulating plants is easy when you have lights that put off plant specific PAR wavelengths! This is perhaps the most important part of growing, the fact that the grower is in full control of the light wavelengths! Plants now react to your needs and that can't be done with that with any other LED grow light on the market. Being able to manipulate the red and blue wavelengths will give indoor growers a new found control over their crops.
