This is by far the most informative and trustworthy video about LED lights I have ever seen!
You didn't gave the blackout period for grow mats microgreen
I think moringa would be a good plant to grow, if it's kept trimmed. It's very nutritious.

I'm considering something somewhat similar, probably including aquaponics.

Hello Nate, have to ask are you an 🇦🇺Aussie? First visit to your Channel and hear a familiar tone? Great Vlog Thank You looking to grow some food on the road, 👍🏻👏🏻🙏🏻🙋🏻♀️🇦🇺

Bryce mitchell is that you
How will the herb keeper do with fresh Basil?
What an idiot about lights in general.. all I use are those exact lights and my plants are growing.. When you DO NOT HAVE MONEY FOR A GROW TENT!, A HUMIDIFIER, A TEMPERATURE REGULATOR FOR HUMIDITY, A FAN TO BLOW AWAY THE SMELL OF A PERSON GROWING THROUGH A FILTRATION SYSTEM, AND CANNOT AFFORD $400 FOR A SINGLE PLANT GROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 you do it the correct old way, maintaining and watching your plants period!!!, without modern technology!!😂😂 and 90% of you growers are AUTO-FLOWERING!!, NOT TRUE GROWING!!😂😂😂 MY PLANTS ARE GROWING PERIOD!, watched alot of videos on youtube, AND IF YOU GROWERS WERE CORRECT!!, MY PLANTS WOULD HAVE DIED ALREADY😂😂
So much explaining but never got the answer to the title of the video
thanks for the feedback. We wish there were a simple straight forward answer. But the truth is that until you invest some time and effort to understand how this works, you are unlikely to get your lighting setup correct....
do you start open growlight at night or day
Plants do need a period of darkness every day, so we usually recommend the lights be on during the day. However if you're in an area that has no natural light then there's no reason you couldn't 'switch' that.
Thanks for the video. I found one of these at a local goodwill. It didn’t have a book so the video was very helpful.
nice work!
The idoo sponges might be defective, they looked extremely dry, mine had no issues spreading roots through the sides
good to know, thanks!
too loud music
I would love to know where you are finding the GE 32w at only 25$ 🧐 it’s basically 40$ everywhere I go and isn’t worth it at that price. Especially when SANSI runs discounts on its own storefront.
I guess prices have changed since 3 years ago when we put this together….
nonsense
Hi David, care to elaborate?
I’m begging of you to make a 60 second video
that's a strong ask! What should our 60 second video be about....?
lol last point is subjective, I love purple lights ^^
many things are! If that's the case, go right ahead!
Amazing video
Thank you so much for watching!
where can I get your recommended grow mats at please...Thanks
good morning! You can find them here: www.geturbanleaf.com/products/microgreens-growing-kit?variant=46115959603413
I am a tiny home gardener, some veggies and flowers. I need a simple direction such what lights to use, how long and what distance from seed to seedling?
Hi Millie, are you working with a specific budget?
@@GetUrbanLeaf I want to spend $20 to $35 on LEDs that are easy to hang under wire shelves. I've purchased the so-called Grow Lights in different styles, which stopped working after 12 months. I've also purchased a $120 light with the long bulbs, which was very difficult to hang and adjust. I can replace the bulbs, but I can not replace an LED strip. There are at least 50 videos on seedling lights, and only 1 or 2 provide easy-to-understand info on lights, timing, and distance. The ease of adjustment depends on the type of light and the manufacturers.
I have the same van and I really like the way you used the natural light on the dashboard instead of using a grow light in the back someplace. Where did you buy the fabric grow bags? Was there a problem with water overflowing and collecting on the dashboard?
Hi there! they were actually some prototypes we had made that never made their way to production. We are however looking to add something similar (but a lot bigger) to our catalogue soon!
I grow corals and the only channels I use are blue uv violet pale blue cyan no white no red
White LED's are full spectrum. Because red, blue and green make white
There's a bit more to it than that, but you're headed in the right direction ;)
So are white LEDs full spectrum?
They can be, yes. But just because they're white doesn't make them full spectrum. Humans don't need full spectrum light, plants do!
Purple LED lights decrease sexual appetite? Hm, interesting. I will buy some for my wife.
😳❤️
🙋🏼♀️ sir... any Sci fi like ideas to garden in cold weather in a Land Rover. hopefully the land Rover would have a chimney? 😬 ... do u think it could be done with one of those uv lights or so? 😬 please, tell us. ua-cam.com/video/rdhlZuFR0q8/v-deo.htmlsi=GtsEPIiA4VjbOTkr I want carrots and oranges... yeah... like for juice in the morning 🌄 😎
Lumens for humans, PAR for plants... buy purple + IR + UV. Is just that easy,
You are 100% correct the white lights perform the same result as grow lights however grow lights can work at a much lower watt and current as it only emits light that’s usable by the plant. If your attempting to keep costs low then this could be an option
agree. And these cost savings are significant if you're growing at scale (i.e. in a vertical farm). But for hobby gardeners at home the energy difference is almost irrelevant and we think the other factors outweight
I totallyyyyyyyyy disagree with saying purple lights are ugly 🤨 As someone with sensitive eyes, white lights severelyyyyyyyyyy hurt, and I cannot handle them being near me, let alone being comfortable with their light. And then I can only have them for so long, which sucks because I wannnnt to look at my plants. Switched to purple and now I’m muchhhhhh more comfortable, doesn’t hurt to look at them or my plants, it’s a very verryyyyy nice vibe at night time when u dim them down, they don’t randomly blind ur screens and such, or make u feel like ur living outside in the sun. Purple > white for me frfr. Wouldnt go back
Glad you're a fan of them!
Nice video, but are you psychopath ? You aint blinking 😁
I didn’t quite understand what these numbers inside the table mean. Do you have a video that discusses this topic in more detail?
If there are some practical tips for the most common plants, it's wonderful. Thank you for the knowledge.
We trick plants and some of them tricked us back
true that!
BUT how can you tell if the light vendor is unscrupulous & is just calling his everyday shop lights FULL SPECTRUM when they are not? !
I notice sunlight & sunshine is not purple. A bit yellow in the winter but white in the summer. Never purple. !
Have you noticed how many LED lights come with a controller which allow you to change the lights color? The way it is done is that todays LEDs are capable of producing all the different colors, how it switches is that the voltage is adjusted to create the different colors. !
Ueah but who to sell to?
Fair question! but this is not really our specialty I'm afraid. We (Urban Leaf) only focus on gardening for at-home growers (i.e. personal use).
it is 100% true. i made various experiments and basically you could have a plant growing with 100W of pink light and it woundnt even grow like a plant with 20W of white light.
I know that phone lux meters are very inacurate, but my current lights show between 3500-4000 lux depending on the distance. Now, i dont know if thats enough but im waiting for more lights to come. Im currently planting : Basii, Bell peppers, Cherry tomatoes, Lemon mint and Perilla. Also, as of now, im lighting them up 24/7 . I might change it up as soon as the extra lights come.
I believe 2 white full spectrum LED nodes, to one orange, to one red produces incredible results. The ones I buy for my bonsai are 1 white. 2 orange, and one red ratio, it provides excellent results, but it’s slightly less than optimal than the first I described.
La Sansi et Vita me semblent les meilleurs pour la culture de mes plantes dans mon salon et dans ma petite serre! 🤩
I am retired in Costa Rica and am setting up an LED grow light system. i will be raising inside veggies that we can't get here. Any help/direction you can give would be great. Thanks for what you do.
That sounds like a fun project Arthur, what are you growing?? Our website is loaded with information about how to grow various edible plants indoors and in urban spaces. We also have a free eBook and various other resources that can help you achieve your goals. Welcome, and great to have you here!
I will be planting potatoes, peppers, radishes, dwarf carrots, actually many dwarf plants including tomatoes, lettuce, beets, okra and others. It will take a lot of experimenting. I have 12, 4' Barrina grow ligths, may not the best but what it is what I could get. @@GetUrbanLeaf
Purple grow light doesn’t work
RGB is light color. RED, GREEN, BLUE. 255 parts of each = WHITE LIGHT. Isn't that FULL spectrum?
The single main point, you completely ignored, as to why traditional grow lights are purple... has to do with the fact that all photosynthesis takes place in the Blue & Red spectrums. Chloroplasts do not undergo photosynthesis at all in Green Light. Frequencies in the Green spectrum do catylize certain enzymes that effect plant growth & development, but Green Light contributes nothing to photosynthesis itself. So the 1 & ONLY reason traditional grow lights were purple... is because the focus was put on the spectrums that are responsible for photosynthesis. Furthermore, the fact that Green Light penetrates deeper into plant tissues, does not equate to plants utilizing that light. Green Light is only absorb by the Carotenoid pigments in plant cells, & these pigments are abysmally inefficient at absorbing that Green light. Depending on species, only 2% - 20% of Green light is actually absorbed & provides excitation energy for various physiological functions in plants. The primary function of Green Light in plants effects Cell Turgor, aids in the Osmosis of nutrients into cells, Catylizing certain growth hormones, Stem Elongation, & triggers the Stomata to open or close, in plants growing in forest understories. Green Light contributes nothing to the photosynthetic production of food.
we covered this at the beginning of the video, and you’re right - this is traditional wisdom. I think you might be surprised by what some of the more recent science says about the impact of green on plant health, however. check out Prof Bruce Bugbee and his work
@@GetUrbanLeaf The so-called recent science on the effects of Green light on plants, is actually not recent. We've know since the early 50s, that Green light was "essential" for other physiological functions in plants. It is just that the grow light industry simply ignored the necessity of Green light, because it is not used for photosynthesis, & the focus was placed solely on the production of plant sugars. This has lead to particularly annoying garden myths about how plants interact with different frequencies of light, such as... Green light is not essential or important, & the science had just simply been misrepresented for decades. If you read plant physiology books from the 60s & 70s... they all discuss the roles Green Light plays in plant development. For so long, growers have only focused on photosynthesis, which is absurd, because photosynthesis is only 1 "essential" physiological process in plants. Photosynthesis may be the dominant process, but it would cease to function without all the other physiological functions that support it.
I feel like I finally understand. Thank you so much!
glad to hear it! grow lights are actually pretty simple, once you understand a few basic concepts ;)
