Buyer ToolNEW ISSUED! We created a calculator for led grow light and aquarium light so as to help buyer make correct decision for various projects. Now you know how many LED grow lights you need!
Basis of calculation:
Plants "see" light differently than human beings do. As a result, lumens, lux or foot candles is not exact measure method for plant growth since Lumen are used for human visibility. More scientific measures for plants are PAR watts, PPF. Since the most of LED grow lights manufacturers use lumen in the specification of light, it is very hard to compare with conventional grow lights. To simplify difficulty, we created a calculator for led grow light and aquarium light so as to help buyer make correct decision for various projects. Note, this is a rough estimation, in addition to quantity of light, considerations of quality are important, since plants use energy in different parts of the spectrum for critical processes. A "good" level depends on a number of factors, including plant type, stage of growing cycle, response to increased light levels, among others.
How can I use it?
Import your growing areas with length and width (ft) in orange cells, click UPDATE button, the results are listed in table gray cells areas, e.g. if your areas is 10x10ft, and your plant needs high level lighting, you will find you need five 90w, OR three 120w OR two 300w OR one 600w LED grow lights.
