Our bulbs are specifically designed for horticultural applications. These powerful sunlight assimilation bulbs create the perfect light conditions for healthy, large yielding plants. For optimum harvests we recommend that you replace your bulbs every 6 – 9 months. Please always ensure that you match the wattage of your lamp to the wattage of your ballast.

Which HID lamp should I use?

When in the vegetative stage, plants prefer light in the blue part of the spectrum, whereas flowering plants are more productive under red light. This is a consequence of the movements of the sun during the plant’s natural seasonal cycle.
They grow vigorously in the spring (when we have the longest days and the sun is clear and high in the sky) and produce flowers throughout the summer until their autumnal harvest time when the sun is lower, days gradually shorten and its light shifts toward the red part of the spectrum (think of the warm light of a late summer evening).
There are three main options available for HID systems to suit these requirements:

Dual Spectrum High Pressure Sodium (HPS)

The best value, most user-friendly and most commonly used kind of lamp; producing a blended light which contains both red and blue parts of the spectrum. This lamp can be used for both vegetative and flowering stages of the plant’s life.

Red spectrum HPS

These lamps produce light predominantly in the red/orange part of the spectrum, and are designed to achieve maximum results during the flowering stage.

Metal Halide

Although these lamps are available with different spectrums, they are predominantly known as a blue spectrum lamp which is excellent for the vegetative stage. Many growers have found these lamps produce healthier, more vigorous plants during vegetation when compared to dual spectrum lamps. Metal Halide lamps also benefit from slightly cooler running temperatures.
