Are LED Grow Lights Better Than HID? Yes. LED grow lights are superior to HID for a variety of reasons - Energy efficiency, safety, flexibility, and longevity. Back when LED technology was brand new, LED grow lights were considered inferior to HID (High-Intensity Discharge) grow lights including MH grow light and HPS grow light . LEDs were not as powerful or as reliable, and as a result, professional growers did not trust them to give the quality and yields they wanted. These days, things have definitely changed. LED technology has grown better, brighter and more advanced. LED grow light bulbs are more powerful than ever. CREE, SMD and reflector technologies have brought LEDs to the forefront of professional grow operations. Individual LED diodes are brighter than ever and the addition of reflector cups helps to increase canopy penetration better than HID bulbs could ever achieve. LEDs are far more energy-efficient than HID grow lights. Why? Mainly because they do not put out near...

Light is essential for the process of photosynthesis to occur in a cannabis plant. The more light you provide a cannabis plant, the more the yield you should expect in return. It is vital that you monitor all the other environmental factors such as humidity, temperature, and the levels of Carbon dioxide in the air. Cannabis is highly receptive to the amount of light that you provide as it shows by the size and quality of the flowers. Due to the advancement in technology, LED grow lights are one of the favorites to many farmers since they promise to deliver greater energy efficiency with lower heat signatures. They offer wavelengths that can be fine-tuned to the stage of growth of the plant and they consume 60 percent less energy than traditional light bulbs.
