Guides to hang the led grow lights for each stage of indoor plants?

First of all, the principle of setup led grow lights is hanging above the tree. You must ensure that 60% of the leaves receive light from the hanging LED.

The distance from the LED grow light to the top of the tree will be adjusted depending on the position and each tree. For example, when many roses are hanging lights 30 cm away from the top of the tree, the leaves have a burning phenomenon.

However, when adjusted to a height of 50cm, this phenomenon is no longer and the leaves grow well. Therefore, for each plant, you have to adjust the distance between the LED to the tree.

The next rule of hanging the led grow lights is to ensure safety during use. You definitely know that when using of electricity-related devices, the installation and use of the LED must be ensured to be safe.

The connector and the LED socket have to use waterproof type because the led grow lights are usually hung up to add light to the trees. You also should lampshade to prevent rainwater from splashing directly into the LED lights.

For high building areas – balconies with rather strong winds, you have to pay more attention to hanging the led grow lights. Avoid hanging long wires leading to wind breaking the light wire.

Moreover, should use a light base, to ensure safety for use. The outdoor electric wires should also use industrial wires with protective covering outside to limit electrical leakage due to rubbing things that open the wire.

If there is a baby in the house, limit the baby to go to the LED using area.

Now, we will give you more detailed instructions on how to set up the led grow lights for growing cannabis.

Early growth stage

During the early growth of cannabis, Led grow lights should be hung at a position about 300 mm above the plants. This way can promote the height of the tree.

Main growth period

At this stage, you can raise the LEDs from 300 to 600 mm above the tree, the distance will correspond to the density of the plants.

Trees with a dense foliage density will need lower lights to ensure that the Led light can bring enough light to the lower branches, with trees with a lower foliage density, you can raise the lights higher.

Finally, it is the grower’s choice whether they want the length between the internodes to be smaller or larger. It is important to remember that the light needs of the tree are different.

If the tree requires a high level of light, the lamp should be placed above the tree about 300mm.

If the tree requires a lower light level, the LED grow lights should be hung 600mm above the tree, Or, you can hang the LEDs higher depending on the exact amount of light that the tree needs.

Remember to observe how plants grow, they will tell you whether they need light closer or further.

Sprouting and flowering phases

During the sprouting and flowering period, you are still able to maintain the LED lights at a position of 300 to 600 mm above the plants’ top.

In general, about 400 mm above the leaf canopy seems to be the ideal height for hanging the led grow lights for cannabis.

How to nurse indoor cannabis with the led grow lights

Watering causes a number of problems for those who start to grow indoor plants with LEDs.

Most guidelines for watering or providing food for plants are based on HSP lighting, where transpiration occurs and plants must be watered daily to replace water, feed, etc. which remove from the plant pots.

When using Led lights, evaporation or food is not a problem, however, watering too much is really dangerous for indoor trees such as cannabis.

Plants were grown under LEDs usually require only about 30% of the nutrients compared to HPS light. You should also add Cal-Mag when growing on LEDs.

You may need to increase the LED room temperature during the winter months. The heat level in the LED planting area decreases sharply compared to when using HPS light.

However, in cold weather, you should pay special attention to the temperature of the LED planting area, for example, you are able to hang the led grow lights lower to help warm for cannabis.
