What is a horticultural LED?

A horticultural LED is a lighting system designed to provide plants with the light wavelengths they need for development. It is used in indoor growing when natural light is insufficient or absent.

Use in indoor growing

Horticultural LEDs are used at different stages of a plant’s life cycle, including germination, vegetative growth and flowering. Depending on the model, they may emit a specific light spectrum or a full spectrum adapted to several growing phases.

Their purpose is to reproduce the lighting conditions plants need in order to support their development in a controlled environment.

Characteristics of horticultural LEDs

Horticultural LEDs are often valued for their energy efficiency, long service life and low heat output compared with other lighting technologies used in indoor growing.

Modern systems also make it possible to better control light intensity and spectrum distribution according to the needs of the crop. They are now widely used in indoor growing facilities of various sizes.
