Features and Operation
Intensity and Spectral Control
PlatinumLED lights feature two ON/OFF switches, each controlling 50% of the panel power and diodes. The VEG switch provides spectral output optimized for vegetative growth. The BLOOM switch acts as a booster, intended for use with the VEG switch during the flowering stage for best results.
Infra-Red and UV LEDs
Your PlatinumLED light includes Infra-Red (IR) and Ultra Violet (UV) LEDs. These may appear dim or unlit to the human eye as their wavelengths are not visible. This is normal and indicates they are functioning correctly.
Setup and Hanging Height Recommendations
Proper acclimation of plants to LED grow lights is crucial due to their intensity. Start with less intensity for young plants and gradually adjust. Observe your plants for signs of stress, such as curling leaves, and adjust the light height accordingly. Aim for leaves that are happy and pointing upwards.
- Seedlings and Clones: 36" - 40" (VEG switch only)
- Early Vegetative Growth: 24" (VEG switch only)
- Late Vegetative Growth: 24" (VEG and BLOOM switches)
- Flowering: 18" (VEG and BLOOM switches)
Additional Grow Tips
- Experiment with hanging height to find the optimal intensity and coverage area for your specific plant strain and environment. Higher intensity means smaller coverage, while lower intensity provides wider coverage.
- Larger or higher-intensity PlatinumLED panels may require greater hanging heights than initially recommended. Always monitor your plants' response.
- Due to lower heat output compared to traditional HID lights, adjust your watering and feeding schedules. Avoid overwatering and maintain room temperatures between 75°F - 85°F.
- Always wear protective eyewear when working with LED grow lights. Never look directly into the light source.
