LED Grow Lights for Carrot

Carrot is a very common edible, nutritious, plant growing underground. Perhaps you may simply think that light will not have a great influence on its growth. However, light is very important for promoting the photosynthesis and growth of plants, no matter for tomato, potato or other fruits. Let’s explore our carrot LED grow lights.

Importance of Carrot Grow Lights

If you happen to construct the indoor grow room, you will face the issue of insufficient natural sun lights, which in turns decrease the yield and affect the health of the plants. Nonetheless, artificial light for plant growth is a way to solve this issue.

There are many types of artificial lighting such as LED, high-pressure sodium, fluorescent, metal halide and so on. Among them, LED is a contemporary and the best lighting solution because of its high photoelectric conversion efficiency, compact size, long-life span, low energy consumption and low heat emission.

Advantages of Using LED Lights for Growing Carrot

Carrot grows better under the temperature between 15-25 degree-Celsius, and low humidity. By using our LED lights, you can enjoy the following benefits.

1. Improve Carrot Growth Cycle

From sowing to harvest, the normal growth cycle is around 4 months, generally from July to September to harvest. However, the growth cycle can be reduced by 1 month by using LED lights. Carrot belong to long-day radiant plants that require a daily sunshine of 12-14 hours. Since sunlight is not controllable, we can use plant growing lights as the supplementary light source during cloudy days. Shortening the growth cycle significantly increase your income.

2. Reduce Carrot Malformation

Our LED Grow Light uses an efficient optical system that not only concentrates the light in the areas, but also ensures a high level of illumination, as long as they are sowed within a certain area. They can obtain the same amount of light. It ensures the growth rate and sizes of carrot is more or less the same for the same batch.

Besides, recent studies show that consistent lighting help reduce the malformation rate, and hence they can be healthier.

3. Improve the Survival Rate and Yield

LED has good light quality, which improves the survival rate of the growth period, especially for seeding. Our grow lamps for carrot mimics sunlight because it has full spectrum. Compared to monochromatic light, the wavelength of the full spectrum can provide overall needs in the growth cycle. Full spectrum lights contain 480 nm and 620 nm components.

Customized Grow Lights for Carrot

LedsMaster develops full spectrum plus blue lights for growing carrot.

1. LED saves 80% energy because of its high luminous efficiency of 130 lm/W (white lights part).

2. You have no need to worry about the leaves burn out because of the excessive heat. It is because LED is a cool light source that does not generate much heat.

3. The lights have built-in IP66 waterproof function that resists water splash and jet to improve the durability.

4. This product has exceptionally long life span of 80000 hours (28 years based on 7 to 8 hours per day).

Conclusion

The LED Grow Light has now been widely used in agricultural production. On one hand, it increases the yield and improves the health of carrot; on the other hand, LED saves much energy and helps protect our environment when comparing with using the HID lamps.
