Low-Consumption indoor grow lights

Low-consumption bulbs for growing marijuana or other plants provide your plants with powerful light while emitting minimal heat. In addition to low electrical consumption, these bulbs have other features that can improve your grow. If you need a powerful light for your indoor plants that doesn't increase the temperature and offers great results, low-consumption lamps and bulbs are an excellent option. We offer a wide catalog of all models of low-consumption bulbs, complete with all the necessary information to choose the right light for your grow.

What are low-consumption lamps?

Low-consumption lamps, also known as compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) or LED systems, are lighting devices designed to be more energy-efficient compared to traditional incandescent bulbs. They use less electricity to produce the same amount of light, resulting in significant savings on energy bills and a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.

How Do low-consumption lamps work?

CFLs operate by using ionized gas and a fluorescent coating that emits light when an electric current is applied. LED lamps, on the other hand, use light-emitting diodes that are much more durable and efficient. Both options are popular for their long lifespan, lower heat output, and contribution to environmental sustainability.

Advantages of low-consumption bulbs

Low-consumption bulbs offer several benefits, including:

Temperature control

Low-consumption bulbs are ideal for small grows because if you used an HPS bulb, the temperature would rise too much. These bulbs emit strong light while generating minimal heat, allowing them to be placed close to the plants without causing burns.

Available color spectra and wattages

Low-consumption bulbs come in various color spectra, suitable for different plant stages. They also come in different wattages, ranging from 105W to 250W. The wattage choice depends on the grow area:

  • 105W low-consumption lamp: covers 60cm x 60cm
  • 150W low-consumption lamp: covers 80cm x 80cm
  • 200W low-consumption lamp: covers 1m x 1m
  • 250W low-consumption lamp: covers 1.2m x 1.2m

Adaptability in hot seasons

In very hot seasons, when the grow temperature might be too high, you can replace some HPS lights with low-consumption bulbs. This helps reduce the room temperature while still providing light to the plants. It’s recommended to rotate the plants to ensure all of them get equal light, resulting in a more homogeneous harvest.

Types of low-consumption bulbs

Plants have different needs throughout their life cycle. Therefore, it’s advisable to have different bulbs and spectra suited for each stage. Some of our available low-consumption bulbs include:

Growth bulbs

Low-consumption growth bulbs emit bright white light that mimics springtime sunlight. This light allows plants to grow compact and strong without rushing to elongate. They are ideal for:

  • Rooting cuttings
  • Germination of seeds
  • Growth of mother plants

They can also be used as a supplement to HPS lamps, placing them between branches to promote more lateral growth.

Low-consumption bulbs for flowering

Low-consumption flowering bulbs have a more orange hue, mimicking the light of summer/fall. Plants will flower faster, perceiving that they are in a later time of the year. These bulbs are suitable for a Sea of Green system and can be used alongside HPS lamps to reinforce lateral flowering.

CFL Agrolite Low Consumption (Flowering)

The CFL Agrolite bulb is ideal for flowering plants, even in summer, as it does not emit much heat. Its powerful orange light promotes plant development, although growth is slower compared to HPS bulbs. It is useful for placement in the lower parts of plants, promoting better flowering without the risk of burning them. This eco-friendly lamp, with a lifespan of 8,000 hours and 25% energy savings, is perfect for maintaining grows within optimal parameters during the hottest months of the year.

Mixed bulbs

Mixed low-consumption bulbs are suitable for both plant phases. They emit intermediate light, neither too white nor too orange, allowing their use during both the growth and flowering phases. They offer the convenience of not needing to change the bulb depending on the plant's stage.

Fluorescent tubes

In addition to low-consumption bulbs, you will also find fluorescent tubes, from basic systems to the latest technology. These tubes are mainly used for growth and rooting cuttings, as they emit cool, white light with low energy consumption. Various reflector models with fluorescent tubes are available, from 2 tubes to 8-tube setups.

PLL55W Fluorescent Tube

PLL55W fluorescent tubes are ideal for improving the quality of indoor grows, especially in PLL2x55W propagators. They are efficient for rooting cuttings and germinating seeds, emitting little heat and using minimal energy, helping keep electricity bills low. Available in three models for different growing phases, these tubes promote healthy growth with strong roots and prevent rapid dehydration of seedlings, making them perfect for small, low-height spaces.
