Kind LED X750 Grow Light VS Mammoth Lighting Fold Series MF08 LED Grow Light

 If you’re looking to keep costs down in your grow room, LEDs are a great option for lighting your plants. Unlike other types of grow bulbs that are up to 90% efficient at emitting light, LEDs are highly efficient and suitable for almost any situation. In this article, we’ve gathered the information you need to make an informed decision about switching to LEDs in your grow room.

Why Choose LED Grow Lights?


Grow lights are a must for indoor growing, especially in grow tents. When choosing lights, we wanted to simulate the perfect light conditions created by the sun, which produces the same spectrum that plants use to photosynthesize in their natural environment. LED grow lights also use extremely low energy and generate very little heat. They also provide full-spectrum light to take care of plants at every stage of their growth. In general, different colors on the spectrum play different roles in plant growth.

Blue light promotes the growth of stems, branches, and leaves, and red light promotes the growth of buds and flowers. Additionally, green and yellow light also aid in plant growth, however, for most home growers, the focus is on blue and red light. That’s why when you search for LED grow lights online, the LEDs show up as purple, a mix of blue and red.

Factors to Consider When Choosing LED Lights for Indoor Plants

The type of LED lights you choose can affect the growth and health of your plants. When making your decision, consider color temperature, wattage, area covered, and cost.

To help you on your journey, we’ve rounded up our top recommendations for LED lights for different plant types, growth stages, and budgets.

By providing proper lighting, you will create a thriving indoor garden:

LED color temperature
The color temperature of LED lights can affect the appearance and health of indoor plants. Make sure to choose a color temperature that is right for your plants.

LED wattage
The wattage of your LED light will determine how much light it provides to your plants. Choose the right wattage for your indoor garden and its specific lighting requirements.

LED Coverage Area
The area covered by the LED light will determine how much space it can cover and how many plants it can accommodate. Make sure to choose LED lights that cover an appropriate area of your indoor garden.

The lights we discussed above will spread light over all your plants. If any of your plants are still in the shade, you will need additional lighting.

LED cost
Make sure to choose LED lights that fit your budget while still providing the right amount of light for your houseplants. It’s best to start small and work your way up.

Table lamps and strip lighting will be the most cost-effective and will give your plants plenty of growth momentum.

Many pendant lights may cost more than simple table lamps, but they are known for their effectiveness in keeping plants growing vigorously.
