Efficient and therefore productive, horticultural lighting is illustrated according to its vocation, through specific color temperatures (measured in degrees Kelvin = K) to respond to growth, flowering or mixed phases.

Horticultural lighting is also selected on the basis of energy consumption and wattage, which must be matched to the dimensions of the growing room.

What are the most commonly used horticultural lighting systems for indoor cultivation?

Indoor cultivation has long been monopolized by the use of HPS (High Pressure Sodium) or MH (Metal Halide) lighting kits. Consisting of a reflector (or Cooltube)a ballast - ballast (magnetic or electronic) and an MH or HPS bulb, an HPS or MH horticultural lighting kit has a powerful luminous flux, with high covering powers.

But this sodium lamp kit is still an energy-hungry horticultural lamp, giving off a lot of heat, which can be a handicap when growing in a small cultivation area.

Very popular for many years, and also known as turbo neon and T5neon kits have proved to beefficient, economical and low-heat horticultural lighting systems.

With properties such as these, the use of turbo neon and T5 kits, like Starlite and CIS Products' Starlite and T5 strips, is particularly useful during the rooting and growth phases of plants, especially in very small-scale grow rooms.

What are the latest innovations in horticultural lighting?

Today, new horticultural lighting technologies have won over a growing number of demanding indoor growers. At a time when ecological concerns remain a major preoccupation for all, two types of horticultural lighting have emerged and are becoming widely popular.

Theeco CFL lighting lighting is winning over indoor gardeners for obvious reasons, such as :

  • fully optimized efficiency of the light spectrum on photosynthetic activity,
  • low energy consumption,
  • low heat emission, which favors very limited plant evapo-transpiration.

CFL for Compact Fluorescent Lamps, CFL eco lighting represents energy-saving bulbs whose light spectra are calibrated to correspond to the various stages of cultivation(growth, flowering or mixed, like the SuperPlant or Advanced Star).

Likewise, setting up eco CFL lighting is electrically straightforward, as they require no external ballast, unlike HPS flowering lamp kits or MH growth lamp kits.

With the same technical advantages as CFL bulbs, the LED horticultural bulbs are proving popular with growers, as are the models produced by the brand Indoor Led. What's more LED horticoles can now boast a powerful, high-performance, productive and, in some cases, scalable spectrum. Some LED models even feature dimmers to influence the intensity and colorimetry of the horticultural spectrum, and thus adapt to the stages of cultivation.

Last but not least, CMH plasma lamps round off the wide range ofhorticultural lighting available on Indoor DiscountcMH plasma lamps offer very powerful spectra and high levels of coverage.
