Red Light Spectrum - Beneficial Flowering
OT, for those more saaaavy with light wavelength colors.
On my new LED setup, there is a bloom setting. If I turn off all the lights and only turn on bloom, it seems to be be primarily all red in color. I have a boatload of annual flowers under these lights - and right now I'm starting to see it's 1st blossom. I still have another month-45 days till these annuals can go out. Anyhow, it would be a interesting test to see how much the red plays in the blooms for the annuals. For the tomatoes, I probably still want it to focus all it's energy on growth so even leading up to transplant day , I doubt I will have the ~bloom~ lights on them, even though it might help flowering. Or whaddya say, do a A-B test. For example, leave A alone Plant some extras and compare ? Last edited by mobiledynamics; April 11, 2018 at 04:15 PM. |
