Illumination refers to the amount of light radiation (luminous flux) received per unit area on the surface of an object that is uniformly illuminated, in lux (Lux or lx). In order to allow marijuana to photosynthesize smoothly, we need to control the illuminance between 35000lux and 85000lux.
Each plant growth lamp will identify its own luminous quantity, but this quantity refers to the luminous quantity at full load and zero distance. Light is a kind of electromagnetic wave, which will be greatly attenuated during the propagation, so as the distance increases, Some changes in external conditions such as temperature changes and air humidity changes, although under the same light, the illuminance at different locations and at different heights is different. Plants are affected by light, and the intensity of respiration and photosynthesis are also different. In order to maintain the most basic accumulation of plant nutrients, 2500 lux of light is essential. However, the promotion of photosynthesis by light is limited.
When it reaches a peak of about 100,000 lux (the peaks of different varieties are different), the promotion of photosynthesis by light is very small. On the contrary, excessive light will damage the plant. The pigments can make plants yellow and white or directly burn plants.
