Selecting the Right Grow Lights

Even if you are a gifted, natural gardener, you still need grow lights to make up for deficiencies in natural light.

Even if you are a gifted, natural gardener, you still need grow lights to make up for deficiencies in natural light. If you live in a sunny climate, you know that some species of plants require constant exposure and a few cloudy days can have damaging effects. It's better to have grow lights on hand and not have to use them than it is to need them and not have them available.

Some plants, such as orchids, require constant exposure to light for photosynthesis. You can use a
portable spotlight for a single plant or you can invest in a large industrial lamp such as a radiant lighting
system. Large lamps are better for large gardens. Radiant lighting systems range anywhere from 400 to
1,000 watts in power and, depending on the quality, may be ruggedly built with pregalvanized steel casing and state-of-the-art aluminum interiors.

Full-sized radiant systems come in compact versions that are equally powerful. A compact version may be better for a smaller garden. Sunburst Super Agro offers high-powered luminescence systems for plants but is quieter and cooler than large radiant systems. The latest design has better ventilation, which translates to longer life and greater durability. Both are crucial in a high-powered system.

Effective grow lights are essential for all types of gardening. Some plants require a regular lighting
schedule to maintain maximum health, while other species require a specific temperature, or spectrum, of light. The lighting expert at your local home and garden store may be able to help you determine the
specific needs of the plants you are growing so that you can provide them with what they need. Invest in the best!
