WHY DO WE NEED TO CHOOSE LED GROW LIGHTS FOR CANNABIS GROWING ?
I begant to know led grow lights 12 years ago, at that time , led grow lights just began to be used for cannabis growing. But when we talked about the cannabis growing, every one was shocked, in fact, it is not so horrible. Now led grow lights are much more widely used for cannabis growing, but why led are so popular these days for the cannabis , there are several reasons:
Firstly, led spectrum is much better and better than before. At beginning, I mean 12 years ago, we only chose red, blue, IR, UV or white one, very few spectrum for led grow lights, also the testing was short, so there was not any professional study about the led spectrum. Also the big led chips factory did not know this application at that time, so no special chips for led grow lights. These years, more and more growers tested the led grow lights in the true growing environment, they found better and better spectrum combinations, that is why many growers asked for 12 bands led grow lights. They really work , we also has tested base in Colorado and Australia, very amazing growing yields, quality is much better. Nowadays , many big companies like CREE, Phillips, Osram , Samsung etc, they designed some special chips for plant growing, they looks like white one,it is full spectrum but it is specially designed for growing industry. We tested CREE and Samsung, the Umol is really nice, especially the Samsung LM301B, you will get amazing lighting, coverage is also very nice.
Secondly, more and more countries began to legalize the cannabis growing. If you stayed in different countries before and talked about cannabis growing or such things, people were shocked, they changed face quickly. But now, more and more countries are legalized to grow cannabis, like Canada, they can grow some quantity of the cannabis.In America, many states can grow cannabis legally, I have been to Washington states, I saw so many stores which sell the cannabis outside, it is so amazing. Now in California, if you invest USD 500,000,00 , you can get license to grow cannabis. So time changes, we have to change.
Thirdly, there are so many illegal growers in the world, like European countries, most countries can not grow cannabis legally , it is illegal. As some countries are illegal to grow, but legal to sell , very strange policy, so the cannabis market is so good. I do not advocate the illegal growing indoors, but fact is fact, we have to admit it. Money is a big attract for the illegal growing, maybe in the future, the cannabis growing will be legalized, some people say that South American countries will be legalized to grow cannabis, maybe for economy reason.
Fourthly, if grower grow indoors, illegal or legal, they have to think about the light, cost and performance. Right now, old lights, like HPS, HID are still the main lighting for the growing, but these days, more and more growers choose led grow lights, if you check on internet, social medias, you will notice that so many growers , even very big growers with thousands aces also choose led grow lights for the cannabis growing, I am sure they want to reduce the huge electricity bills in order to make more profit. For other small growers, in order to keep the secret, they have to choose led grow lights. If they choose old lights, some people will know they grow cannabis at home.
Fifthly, more and more big companies are making led grow lights right now, like Phillips, Osram, Samsung, CREE etc, this means they realized the trend of the big market of led grow lights, they never worry about the application of their light for cannabis growing, like Fluencebio, their lights are widely used by growers, legal or illegal, who knows. CBD market is bigger and bigger, in the future, the market of cannabis will be larger and larger as cannabis can be so widely used in our daily life, for cosmetics, , food, fibre etc. No one can stop this trend, so if we are in this field, we should be happy and cherish.
I am not the advocate of cannabis growing illegally, but I like the fact, I like the new things, I hope that we can make use of cannabis correctly. Come on, I am a casual smoker as well.
