Introducing our Green Emergency 2ft Light designed for grow rooms. A crucial aspect of indoor cultivation involves providing plants with uninterrupted darkness at night. Growers often employ green light during the dark period (our day) to attend to plants without negatively impacting their flowering phase. This method addresses the challenge posed by indoor lighting equipment, which can generate significant heat. To manage this, many growers opt to run lights at night when it’s cooler, ensuring the plants receive the necessary 12 hours of darkness crucial for proper flowering.
However, this schedule can be inconvenient, restricting gardening activities to early morning or late evening. By using Green Emergency 2ft Light, growers can work on their plants during daylight hours without disrupting the night cycle. This is possible because plants lack the photoreceptors to absorb green light, allowing it to illuminate the grow space without causing stress or interfering with the flowering process.
Thus, incorporating green light provides a practical solution, enabling effective climate control and flexible gardening hours while maintaining optimal plant health.
GPS-EMGN Series
The GPS-EMGN emits a plant-safe, soft green light ideal for use in safely illuminating the dark plant cycle when growing short-day crops. This light cannot be easily “seen” by plants, allowing for critical tasks to be performed in the grow rooms during the dark cycle without the light adversely affecting the growth stage of the plant.
In cultivation, the color of light plays a pivotal role throughout the plant’s life cycle. During the vegetative phase, blue light with a color temperature between 4000 and 5500K is essential. This spectrum is absorbed by the photoreceptor cryptochrome, which encourages a bushier growth pattern, reduced stem elongation, and enhanced shoot and lateral branch development. The increased blue light exposure accelerates the plant’s metabolism, leading to a more efficient photosynthetic process. Thus, CFL lamps, fluorescent lamps, and metal halide bulbs are commonly used during this phase for their blue light emissions.
As the plants transition to the flowering phase, red light becomes crucial. With a color temperature around 2000K, red light is absorbed by the photoreceptor phytochrome, which stimulates blooming and flower formation. This light spectrum is typically provided by sodium vapor or HPS bulbs, which are favored for their effectiveness in promoting flowering in plants.
While blue and red lights are directly involved in plant growth and flowering, the use of green light, such as that emitted by the GPS-EMGN, offers unique benefits. Green light can be used to illuminate grow rooms during the dark cycle without interrupting the plant’s growth stages, making it invaluable for maintenance and monitoring tasks.
By understanding and utilizing the full spectrum of light, growers can optimize every stage of cultivation, ensuring robust plant health and maximizing yield.
