How to Encourage Sprouting with Grow Lights
We all know that plants use light to sprout, grow and flower. The light is absorbed by chlorophyll cells and converted into energy and organic compounds through a process of photosynthesis. What is less well known is that only certain wavelengths of light are used in the this process. In fact studies have shown four main chlorophyll absorption points; two in the red/orange spectrum and two in the blue/white spectrum. So when it comes to choosing the best grow light for your gardening needs it makes sense to choose lights than emit concentrated blue and red lighting. Here are some tips to get you started on using grow lights to get your seeds sprouting.
First choose a good quality grow light. The three main types are LED grow lights, higher intensity (HID) lights and fluorescent lights. Fluorescent lights are the least expensive so most small scale grow light gardeners start with these.
You'll want to choose a container for your seeds that is as deep as the length of the seeds that you are trying to grow. Moisten the soil slightly and if you need to ensure the growing conditions are humid, cover the soil with plastic.
Place your grow lights over the seed containers. Led grow lights 120w and standard fluorescent lights can be hung between 2 and 4 inches above the soil. But if you are using a HID light, these emit more heat and should be hung further away, between 2 and 5 feet. You can monitor the distance as the seeds start to sprout. If the seedlings are leggy or spindly bring the light closer.
Purchase a timer so that you can adjust the duration of light that is being shined on the seed container. You'll want to mimic spring light conditions with 6 hours of darkness alternating with 16 hours of light.
Your final step is to transplant the seedlings to where you plan to grow them permanently once they have reached an appropriate size.
Relax in the Garden After a Hard Day at Work
