Why Is Infrared (IR) Important When Growing Indoors ?
You should always use an LED grow light that includes the infrared spectrum (IR) when growing indoors. Robert Emerson performed a series of experiments in 1957 in order to determine what wavelengths are most efficient for promoting photosynthesis. What he found was very significant, especially in regards to indoor growing and the use of LED […]
