Advantages of CMH grow lights Broad spectrum This is the first winning point of CMH over HIDs light. CMH bulbs have much a wider and more consistent spectrum. So besides having enough light intensity, plants also love to have sufficient light colors/quality to have their best growth potential. More UV rays Under high pressure, CMH bulbs can produce powerful light output that contains Ultraviolets (UV) like the sun. These UVs include UV-A, UV-B, UV-C, especially UV-B which is really helpful for plant growth, overall all 3 types of UV are harmful to human eyes. So you should not look at the bulbs directly for a long period. And most good CMH brands use a protective glass filter to block harmful UV types. Durable Since they are built with ceramic arc tubes, CMH grow lights have a great lifespan of up to 20,000 hours. But reality shows that they can last longer than that. This is more than double the average lasting hours of HPS and MH bulbs . Choose CMH if: You need t...

Why do different grow lights need to be hung at different heights? If your indoor garden is supposed to mimic a plant’s natural (outdoor) environment, then the grow light is the sun from which everything grows- only you have control over what type of light and how much of it your plant receives. That's partially why growers say more light=better yields. But does that mean you should get more lights and hang them as close to your plants as possible without touching them? Of course not. It means making sure they receive enough energy to grow quickly without overpowering them. But to assure that your plants are getting exactly what they need- no more, no less- you’ll want to check the type of light you’re giving your plants: L.E.D., H.I.D., or T5 Fluorescent lighting . Some lights offer more heat energy, and others offer better spectrums, and each needs to be hung in a different distance from your canopy: LED grow lights , for example, need to be hung farther away from your plants tha...

Choosing an Artificial Light Source Different types of bulbs emit different types of light, a different spectrum of colors and varied intensities, meaning that not all of them are suitable for each type of plant. Knowing the specific light requirements for your indoor plants will benefit you when trying to determine what type of artificial light will aid your plants best. For indoor plants that require only low levels of light or merely a little extra supplement, incandescent lamps are suitable. While the bulbs emit primarily red light, which only meet half of the plant’s needs, they will suffice if you only require a few hours of additional illumination. Incandescent bulbs do, however, have the downside of burning hot, which reduces humidity and creates a dry environment for plants, potentially burning their leaves. It is vital you take this into account and make allowances when setting up incandescent lamps. Regular fluorescent bulbs provide a cooler environment for plants wh...
