Heree in Haiti, where growlight are very difficult to get. I use 6 regular led lights for my mother plant and clones. When the clones reaches a certain size, I put them outside to flower. Never had an issue.
I have had great success using 14w 1750 lumen (or so) 4200k led household bulbs , plants showed no sign of needing more or different colored light , this was for plants similar to tomatoes .
@@Richard-fi3rz14w 1600 lumens are quite common here and would be even better for you and you should use at least 3-4 if you're growing medicinal tomatoes
Awesome.👍🏾✊🏾!!!! I decided to salvage an old television 📺, and cut the parabolic screen off of the face of the TV. And I am going to stick/paste some thick aluminum foil, from Walmart, on the inside of the TV face, and then polish it.🪞then I am going to center, and experiment with what types of light sources to use. And focus, the magnifying 🔍, and now projected pure beam, to decide how much radiation I am going to need, according to whatever it is that I am planting, and growing. Which will be only food. Before the Big, global famine begins.
Thank you for being clear, concise, and informative! I've just skipped through a few other vids on grow lights and they all waffled on about nothing. So glad your vid showed up!
Very useful thanks, bought a couple of growlights now it's getting darker earlier here in the UK. Been using regular LED on others thinking it's better than nothing, and your video has helped with that. Usefully with Philips Hue you can choose the Kelvin rating to match the best blueish white.
Awesome video. Your work is advancing and it shows. Editing, knowledge, quality, confidence. Thank you for working so hard and smart for us all. Well done. Amazing editing.
Thanks for the video and amazing information. Many house hold lamps often work. But having a lamp that is created for growing is often showing better results. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and this part 2 is great!
Thanks Lucia. I subscribed a few days ago. So happy to have found you. PLEASE make a clip about Gardenia care. I have one that always seem to be in a bad mood :-( Thanks.
Hey, this is the best explaining video on the subject! I have a question, in 4:40 you mention that in case of buying a regular LED, we should aim for the cool spectrum. But as I'm seeing in that chart, wouldn't a LED bulb between 5000 and 6000k be more in the 'middle ground' of warm and cool colors? So it can also have some more of red spectrum there?
@@oscaratencio1512 I just used a regular LED bulb! Grow lights are very expensive. For a cozy living room, get a 3000k otherwise it would be too blue and look cold. I read that is more importat the wattage (and lumens) than the temperature. So make sure to get at least a 30-40w bulb
Uploaders constantly fail to check their audio levels. Even if they're intimidated by using certain plugins like an audio compressor and limiter, the minimum they should do is compare it with professionally made commercial videos.
She forgot to mention that not only the light color is different, but also the amount of photons produced. the photon density of grow lights is much larger, and therefore they often need more power to produce the same amount of visible light (40W vs. 8W is quite common), but for plants this photon densitiy is crucial.
If i have only leafy plants, can i use a blue light? i live up in the mountains, winter is always very grey and misty so i want to help them during the winter. they dont die due to lack of light during winter, but they dont grow either.
Blue light will generally help with vegetative and folktale growth for sure. I’m testing an only blue grow light for a cutting with no leaves now, I’ll see how it goes ! If it is not a grow light, just observe your plant and see if it’s not growing leggy, that may mean that the light intensity is not good enough

Plants similar to tomatoes.... ohhh you grow corn???

Clear, informative, not complicated explanation! Thank you!
I've grown with every bulb out there but I've never used a "grow light".
Wow, Lucia. You really went to school on this topic for us. Thank you!

Ah that’s really good to know about Philips ! Thanks for sharing and glad you found the video useful 😊✨🪴
I owned grow lights but a store had some shop light and I bought a couple of them. My plants perfered the shop lights. All are led.
I can't use grow lights because of my weak and sensitive eyes. This video was so helpful to me!
Awesome video. Your work is advancing and it shows. Editing, knowledge, quality, confidence. Thank you for working so hard and smart for us all. Well done. Amazing editing.
Thank youuu! I’m so happy the content is improving and that you guys like it too 😊
Thank you so much. I'm looking to get more light for my plants and your video was very helpful beside you being so nice. Thank YOU!
Thank you
Your video easily to understand
Best one I came across!❤❤️🌹

Just found ur channel, thank u for the info...cant wait to try this out & c the results 👍
Dear what about succulents..?
could i put blue xylophone on my light?
I have a 3000k light bulb. So , it doesn't work to grow my plants, right?

did it workd?? pls
@@oscaratencio1512 I ended iup buying a 3000k 20w led bulb and it worked fine for an Alocasia, but i think 30 or 40w would be better.
@@chris_and_music normal led light or full spectrum? Tysm

can i use growlight ag night?
I can barely hear the sound of this video
Uploaders constantly fail to check their audio levels. Even if they're intimidated by using certain plugins like an audio compressor and limiter, the minimum they should do is compare it with professionally made commercial videos.
So can I use my tiny led bulbs for growing my plant while the sun is away?
Thanks for the very useful video! What kind of light do you use for you strelitzia? And at what distance? How many hours? Thank you so much again ♥️
For rosemary which color of light is better ??
sound?
2:20 why am I seeing a French flag
Outstanding info
Do smart RGB bulbs work too? I can choose the colour range and everything, but it worries me that it's not The Right Lamp for plants

Can you help us review our plant grow lights?

Yooooou are soo cute lucia love yooou❤️
My volume is all the way up and I can barely hear her
Maybe it’s just you or your speakers, I can hear her perfectly well on 1/4 volumr
Difficult to hear you ..
Hope this was helpful ! I’m here for any questions 😊💚
speak louder dear
I think your voice will kill plants
My holy Basel and mango plant are not growing new leafs, which light is suitable for this situation.
Should I use yellow light ?
No! For basil. Normal bright white/ blue. "Cool white light" 4000k +. 1 normal led house light. Only use 2600k (WARM)if seeding your basil.
