Our vegetative and flowering footprints are based on the light intensity requirements for some of the most commonly-grown high-light plants such as...
-
Yes, every light produces heat. It does not matter if the light comes from a bulb, diode, or a star like our sun; they all produce heat. LEDs provi...
