Sylvania Horticulture Light
What is Horticulture Lighting?
Horticulture lighting is the electromagnetic radiation that stimulates plant growth with artificial lighting fixtures when there is a lack of natural light. Plants can grow faster and healthier when they are under horticulture lights. Improved growth results from horticulture light’s ability to maintain light levels 24/7. Horticulture lights eliminate changes in light levels as they are not subject to weather changes. These lights are also useful because they help control the plants’ conditions.
Do you need Infrared in Horticulture?
Yes, infrared lighting is needed in horticulture lighting. While plants need red and blue lighting for photosynthesis, they need infrared lighting for flowering. The infrared light will heat the water in the plant and pull it through the rest of the plant to the leaves. This process leads to the growth of plants and flowers.
