The
chemical dosing of the arc tubes to create spectral
output
specific to plant growth is the greatest recent advancement
for our industry. |
| Horticultural light
is measured in par watts (photo synthetically active radiation)
, this is the amount of light energy that a plant can
assimilate. Colour temperature and lumen output of lamps
are rated for human eye response and does not apply to
plant response. The eye response curve
chart shows a spike at about 500 nanometers (yellow
light-regular MH).
Plants use a very broad range of light during their
growth cycle. SUNMASTER
is a brand of specialty plant growth lamps available
with various dosed arc tubes. Each lamp in the family
will perform either a broad application for all stages
(balanced lamp), or be dosed specially in the red for
flowering or blue for vegetative (warm deluxe / cool
deluxe). |
The SUNMASTER
warm MH family is used extensively for flowering in indoor
application as opposed to HPS. Sunmaster Warm Deluxe lamps
create greater flower production and less heat.
Sunmaster lamps use new
technology designed specifically for the horticultural
industry.
The real bonus to the grower
besides enhanced performance is that they are all Metal
Halide and are therefore interchangeable in one fixture! |
