Not so long ago led grow lights arrived on the market, low yields and small fruits were the cry from the general growing community but nowadays the humble led grow light has started a growing renaissance with large yields and large fruits easily achievable.

The new led grow lights on the market now offer comparable results to High Pressure Sodium lighting but at a fraction of the running costs of Sodium , so how has led grow light technology evolved to now provide a led grow light to rival Hps in both terms of yield and fruit size. The development of high power led diodes and advanced heat dissipation systems now allow the led diodes to run at higher voltages than ever before, the newest led grow lights now come fitted with either double optical lens or triple optical lens which both intensify the light and also provide the perfect light dispersion pattern suitable for explosive growth in both vegetative and bloom cycles of plant growth.

These new led grow lights now have the power to rival the light output of Hps however the introduction of specialised wavelengths and ratios combined with the high power led diodes are what makes the new led grow lights so effective. The first grow lights came with a limited spectrum namely Blue, Red and occasionally Orange, the new wavelengths and ratios available now cover the entire spectrum and include Ultra Violet, Blue, Red, Green,Yellow,Orange, Infra Red, 2700K-7000K white.

These range of wavelengths can now be tuned into very specific ratios to provide increased yields and large fruits, the ability to tailor the individual wavelengths in the ratios allow complete control over the grow lights performance which enables the new led grow lights to be tailored exactly to the growers requirements such as higher yield or increased flavour etc.

These two important areas of the led grow light have transformed the led grow light industry, further improvements in led diode wavelength tuning and optical lens technology will provide very fine tolerances in the led wavelengths. The led diodes used in high quality led grow lights are typically tuned to within 5nm(nanometres) and whilst these provide exceptional results in the future it will be possible to tune the led diodes to the plants exact light reactive points requirements. Lens technology is still in its infancy however already there are double and triple lens available, this area of technology can only improve as time passes however the improvements to be gained are potentially huge.

The humble led grow light is now here to stay and with the further advancements in led technology due over the next few years the future for led grow lights is very bright indeed, High Pressure Sodium lighting has dominated the grow light market for many years however the crown is now slipping and led grow lights might just find the crown is a perfect fit.

LED lights have attracted many and are still attracting a large number of crowds because of their benefits and utility. Moreover, the people who are expert in gardening have realized that installing LED grow lights will definitely help them in terms of taking care of the plants as well as monthly costs. The LED grow lights are very beneficial for plants because they are produce the proper spectrum for plant growth at the highest efficiency. Hence, they are great when used for green house and other such large operations.

There are certain features of these LED grow lights that makes them hold their public as well as increase the number of its users day by day. These features are listed below:

• The LED grow lights are energy efficient
• Saves power
• ncrease the profit margins
• The heat produced through these LED grow lights is in small quantity as compared to other lights.

Just as LED grow light technology developed and became successful all over the world, the question now arises if these same LED grow lights will be helpful for use on the moon? While this is still a few years away,technology experts at NASA are trying to use LED Grow Lights and apply their concept in space travel.

As you know these lights generate less heat, it produce fruit of a better taste compared to when it is raised in white light. The main benefit of using the LED grow lights in space research is that it can last the length of a round-trip mission to Mars, which is not possible in any other bulb as they require frequent replacements. Thus, grow led lights are the perfect application for growing plants in space.

LED growing lights are essentially lamps that are used for growing plants without requiring sunlight. These LED plant lights run on electricity and send out electromagnetic spectrum. This sets off the process of photosynthesis, something similar to the sun’s process but in an artificial way.

LED for plants are increasingly used by small time growers who grow plants in their home yards as well as business-oriented agricultural growers. With these lights, it becomes exceptionally easy to prolong the crop growing season ahead of what the nature allows for. Marijuana grow lights became popular in an infamous manner when their name first popped up for growing marijuana. However, today grow LED lights are predominantly used to grow legal and safe crops indoors.

The LED grow lamp is a unique kind of growing lamp. With the advancements in technology and new inventions flooding the market every year, grow light industry is thriving and grows at a rapid pace. The LED lights are the most popular inventions of the grow light industry. The manufacturing process for these lights does not require huge investments and they are produced in an easy way.

The best LED grow lights are those that are quite luminous and last for an incredibly long time. Such lights emit a brightness that uses the unique type of light required by chlorophyll to attain maximum absorption rate.   There are several benefits of using grow LED lights. First and foremost, they make use of less electrical consumption as opposed to incandescent bulbs. These lights do not require ballasts for effective functioning. These lights only produce a miniscule heat amount which is otherwise created by the obsolete HID lamps.

LED plant lights can be easily purchased from the local store and the installation procedure is also quite hassle-free. The grow lights market is vast and these lights can be procured at a cheap price. If you are serious about growing food indoors, then these grow lights are the best option for you. Even if you do not want to travel all the way to the home improvement store, you can also buy them online at a reduced price. Before you install these lights, make sure that you go through the instructional manual thoroughly to prevent any unavoidable accidents. Having the lights installed correctly, you are not far behind to grow an indoor food garden, fed by grow LED lights. Apart from growing edible crops, agriculture owners also use these lights to grow algae indoors, which find application in production of bio-fuel
