Best LED Cannabis Grow Lights
LED grow lighting isn’t new and has been around for many years. A big problem with LED Lights was that many levels of quality lights were sold to market the lights to growers. There was no standard and many on the market didn’t provide a real solution to the growers.
What Makes the Best LED Grow Light?
Our Solar LED Grow Lights are not the typical LED lights available on the market but are advanced lighting systems that not only provide the broad spectrum of optimal lighting needed to promote growth in the vegetative and flowering phases of the growth cycle but can go a step further and provide a tailored spectrum better suited to the needs of the plant or even the type of research being conducted. Our Solar Powered LED lights can accomplish this with our tunable spectrum horticultural lighting fixtures empowering you to have better control of your growing environment. You can adjust lights to (blue light or red light) to best meet the needs of each different stage of growth.
Additionally, our high quality Solar LED Grow Lights are very efficient and use less energy than traditional grow lights and are more environmentally friendly. All of our lights are available to connect with our FUSION solar application. Ask us about growing with solar power.
Grow Solar LED Advantages
Grow Solar Lights are the result of our work with advanced LED Lighting engineers and manufacturers to create a leading edge solar powered light specifically designed for the emerging indoor horticulture space. The technology used has received a patent for how to create ideal spectrums for multiple crop types. Our systems are purpose-built fixtures that serve cultivators in numerous markets. These advanced broad spectrum grow lights help indoor growers reduce their power consumption and increase their growth yields and profitability.

Broad Spectrum vs Standard LED Lights
Broad Spectrum vs Full Spectrum LED Lights
The truth is that the term “full-spectrum” is more marketing than science. Full spectrum led grow lights are the idea that the light source includes visible and invisible wavelengths including UV and IR. In reality LED doesn’t have the capability of generating these wavelengths. Our broad-spectrum LED lights do provide optimal PAR, PPF, and PPFD characteristics that have been proven to increase growth, in fact our system is patented. Look at the actual numbers and you will see that our broad-spectrum lights outperform the so-called full spectrum units every time.
Understanding Grow Light Terminology
To help explain the importance of grow lights and what elements impact growing we have created a list of important terms and concepts to help you understand which LED are best for horticultural lighting.
Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR)
This is the light that plants use to drive photosynthesis and is typically measured from 400-700nm. Note that the human eye has a significantly narrower sensitivity than crop plants. Note that the full spectrum of PAR is used by plants, this is called McCree’s Action Spectrum Note that any photons outside of these wavelengths do not count toward PAR, but may be useful.
Plant Biologically Active Radiation Flux (PBAR)
Plants have photopigments other than chlorophyll that are sensitive to a wider range of wavelengths 350-800nm.
Photosynthetic Photon Flux (PPF)
This is a measurement of how much PAR is produced by a lighting system each second. This is measured in an integrating sphere and expressed in μmol/s.
Photosynthetic Photon Flux Density (PPFD)
This is a measurement of how many photos in the PAR range fall on your canopy per second. This is measured in μmol/m2/s.
Photon Efficiency
This is the measurement of how efficiently a system converts electrical energy into photons that fall in the PAR range. This is expressed in μmol/J or often μmol/W.
- μmol is a micromole is 10-6 moles, a quantum of energy used to define how many photons in the PAR range are falling on the target surface. 1 mole of light is roughly 6×1023 photons
- Joule is a standard unit of work, most often expressed in lighting at “Watts”
Day Light Integral (DLI)
DLI measures the number of photosynthetically active photons (photons in the PAR range) accumulated in a square meter over the course of a day. This is expressed in moles of light (mol) per square meter (10.76 square feet) per day. It is the sum of the per second PPF measurements during a 24-hour period.
Photosynthesis
A process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that can later be released to fuel the organisms’ activities.
Chlorophyll
Chlorophyll is essential in photosynthesis, allowing plants to absorb energy from light. They absorb light most strongly inthe blue portion of the spectrum, followed by red. There are two types of chlorophyll, and b.
Peak Wavelengths for Chlorophyll A & B
Basic Plant Biology
Carotenoids
Carotenoids serve two key roles in plants and algae: they absorb light energy for use in photosynthesis, and they protect chlorophyll from photo-damage – they are derivatives of tetraterpenes.
Photoperiodism
Many flowering plants use a photoreceptor protein, such as phytochrome to sense seasonal changes in night length, or photoperiod, which they take as signals to flower. Obligate photoperiodic plants absolutely require a long or short enough night before flowering.
Wavelengths that Drive Photoperiod
Note that many phytochrome activation wavelengths fall outside of PAR. That’s why PBAR is so important to consider.
