LED Grow Lights STG-800W-G
While LEDs vary in design and intensity, they all work essentially the same way:
- When an LED grow light is turned on, energy in the form of electricity is given to diodes on the light.
- The electricity runs into the diode and streams across it a computer chip, which creates electromagnetic radiation.
- Note: The size (wattage) of the chip will determine how bright a diode will be, and the number of diodes on a light will determine the grow light's overall strength.
- The radiation created in this process results in visible light, which we can see with our eyes and, most importantly, can be utilized by plants.
The radiation generated by LEDs naturally is a piercing blue. A phosphor coating is added over the chip to defuse it so it’s not hyper intense, which would harm the chlorophyll in a plant. Chip dye can be added to each diode to give off particular photons (colors) of light outside of the white/yellow/orange light we’re used to seeing. The strength of each chip, the photons they emit, and the number of diodes in a grow light all come together to give you an LED.
