Today, Yuepu Optoelectronics will talk about in which scenarios the full-spectrum plant growth lamp is applicable?

The full-spectrum plant growth lamp is suitable for various scenarios due to its spectral feature of being close to natural sunlight and covering the entire growth cycle of plants. The following are its core applicable scenarios and specific application features:

I. Home Gardening and Indoor Planting

Balcony/windowsill planting

Applicable plants: Vegetables (such as tomatoes, peppers), flowers (such as roses, succulents), herbs (such as basil, mint).

Advantages: No need to rely on natural light, solving the problem of insufficient light on balconies (such as north-facing balconies).

Full spectrum promotes balanced plant growth and prevents excessive growth caused by lack of light (weak stems and yellow leaves).

In winter, growing lettuce indoors with full-spectrum lamps only takes 40 to 50 days from sowing to harvest. The leaves are thicker and the texture is crisper and more tender.

Desktop micro-landscape/potted plants

Applicable scenarios: Office green plants (such as succulents and ferns), small potted vegetables (such as cherry radishes).

Advantages: The amount of supplementary light can be precisely controlled to prevent small plants from being scorched by strong light.

Spectral balance maintains a compact plant form (for example, succulents are less likely to "spread out into big cakes").

Ii. Professional Planting and Agricultural Scenarios

Supplementary lighting for greenhouses and sheds

Applicable crops: High value-added crops (such as strawberries, blueberries, orchids), off-season vegetables.

Advantage: When there is insufficient light in winter, supplementing the full spectrum can increase the flowering and fruit setting rate (for example, reducing deformed strawberries by 30%).

Promote fruit coloring and sugar accumulation (if used during the grape color change period, the anthocyanin content increases by 20%).

Case: When growing roses in a greenhouse in the Netherlands, using full-spectrum LED lights to extend the duration of light exposure can advance the flowering period by 7 to 10 days and make the flower stems thicker.

Vertical farms and plant factories

Applicable scenarios: Multi-layer three-dimensional planting (such as leafy vegetables, herbs, and medicinal plants).

Advantages: The full spectrum supports the simultaneous growth of multiple layers of plants without the need to adjust the spectrum according to floor height (ordinary lights may require far-red light supplementation from the lower layer).

Precisely simulate the light in different seasons to achieve stable mass production throughout the year (for example, increase the annual yield of lettuce by 40%).

Seedling raising and tissue culture

Applicable stages: Seed germination, seedling transplanting, tissue culture.

Advantages: Germination stage: Blue light promotes root development and improves the uniformity of germination (for example, the germination rate of chili seeds increases from 60% to 85%).

Seedling stage: Avoid excessive growth throughout the entire spectrum and cultivate strong seedlings (for example, if the stem diameter of tomato seedlings increases by 20%, the survival rate after transplantation will improve).

Iii. Scientific Research and Special Demand Scenarios

Plant scientific research and breeding

Application scenarios: Studying the impact of spectroscopy on plant physiology (such as photoperiod regulation and secondary metabolite synthesis).

Advantages: The full spectrum can simulate the changes in natural light (such as UV intensity in different seasons), and is used for control experiments.

Example: When studying the effect of UV-B on the disease resistance of Arabidopsis thaliana, full-spectrum lamps can precisely control the intensity of the UV band.

Cultivation of special plants

Applicable plants: Carnivorous plants (such as Venus flytraps and pitcher plants) : High light and UV are required to promote anthocyanin synthesis, maintain bright colors and insect-catching ability.

Medicinal plants (such as Dendrobium officinale and ginseng) : Full-spectrum promotion of the accumulation of effective components such as polysaccharides and saponins.

Succulent plants: The UV band can promote the coloring of leaves (for example, plants of the Crassulaceae family show red, purple and other colors).

Iv. Commercial and Landscape Scenarios

Indoor landscape and horticultural display

Application scenarios: Botanical garden greenhouses, green plant walls in shopping malls, vertical gardens in hotels.

Advantages: It maintains the natural color and shape of plants throughout the full spectrum, enhancing their ornamental value (for example, tropical orchids have more vivid flower colors).

Low heat output, avoiding high-temperature scorching of landscape plants (compared with traditional HID lamps, the temperature is reduced by 10-15℃).

Commercial cultivation (such as sprout and herb delivery)

Applicable scenarios: Small commercial growers (such as family farms, urban agriculture).

Advantages: Full-spectrum acceleration of sprout growth (for example, pea seedlings can be harvested in 7 days), while increasing vitamin content (for example, vitamin C increases by 15%).

Herbs (such as rosemary) have a more intense aroma and are suitable for fresh-cut sales.
