Since making this video I've found my FAVOURITE GROW LIGHTS EVER (hand on heart, I'm not getting paid to say that 😂)!! I also just made a video about my latest grow light shelf set up: 🌿 GROW LIGHT DISCOUNT CODE 🌿 (Activate the code before using it via this link): www.mother.life/en/shop/privilege Code - JUNGLEHAVEN
Utter chancers talking shite, with a nice website. But feel free to give them all your money for what amounts to a fancy plantpot. Also, not encouraged by the pic of the singed, floppy spiderplant on their own website :D
@@daveed8381 Hey Dave, just wanted to say that I haven't been paid to talk about this company - nor is that link an affiliate link. I personally just absolutely loved their grow lights and they're the best of any I've tried. I appreciate what you're saying, but I just thought I'd put that out there as I wouldn't ever recommend something I didn't truly believe in x
I have the Mother Grow light too and I think it’s amazing! I got them specifically for a Monstera Aurea and a Thai! I’ve had NO issues with my plants whatsoever except nice, beautiful healthy plants
Turning your lights to red in the evenings is amazing! I am a Red Light Therapy Specialist (for humans lmao not plants) and I always tell people that are skeptical about the existence of red light that red light is strongest at sun up and sun down which is why the sky is red when the sun is setting. Thats when you (and your plants) are getting the strongest amount of natural red light!
@LD I don't fully understand what you are saying, but it's the same basic concept. In plants, it helps them grow and in humans it helps heal your body by stimulating the mitochondria to create more energy for your cells to be able to do more for you.
I’m EXTREMELY skeptical about light therapy just because I’ve never done it and because it’s hard to believe that just light will benefit you. But it does kind of make sense since we get vitamin D from the sun
I love when info videos give you a summery at the end, otherwise it’s an info overload. Thank you! I have acquired a green thumb for my inside plants through trial and error and added lights for winter months.
I realise I said PFF instead of PPF - I'm a numpty and my dyslexic brain got the better of me 😂 Let me know if you've got any questions, and I really hope you find this useful 🌿
I am fairly new to growing plants and this may be a dumb question to some, but how do I create bright, indirect light r low light with grow lights? Where should I put my plants in relation to the light? How bright should the various colors be? I have two really nice grow lights we originally bought to use with our planted aquarium until the plants were moved into a new tank with the same lights, only a different size. Now I have them to use for my plants. They are the Fluval Plant 3.0 and they are 48" long, which is how long my plant rack is. They are full spectrum and I can change the intensity of any color and change the programming to have whatever intensity come on whenever I want. Please explain how to go about giving my plants bright, indirect light as well as low light, with my grow lights. I am having a hard time finding the necessary information anywhere online and I love your channel, so I would rather get my information from you!!!
Thank you for this video! So far I’ve only seen videos comparing brands and creators person opinions and this video was the first I’ve seen that explains more about the different types of light produced and what I might want to look for. Just ordered new grow lights for my cabinet and low light corners of the house
Hello! I am currently working on my AP art exam's portfolio, and my theme is related to plant growth and technology. I want to make sure the piece I make is as accurate as possible to the theory of optimal plant growth and this video is exactly what I needed. You were very informative and thorough with your explanations and I want to thank you for making such a good video that not only plant growers can benefit from but also artists :)
thank you thank you and thank you so much. i translated turkish and it help to me for this job. i cant found so much resources in turkish. lets gooooo thank you again. now im a subscriber :)
Thank you so much for this video. I’ve been pondering online for suitable grow lights for my plants for ages and this has helped me make an informed decision.
@@TheJungleHaven they seem to like it. The light is blueish white more so than even cool white "normal" leds. The leds in tv's are 1-2 watt range each and there is about 60 watts worth in a 40 inch tv. I keep a look out for tvs on bin day now.
This is so well formatted! Thank you so much for the help, winter is coming so I gotta get prepared for some of my plants and I love how quick and easy you made it for me to understand! Love the pups as well! xx
I came here for some answers and i got them, lot of tips! Thank you! I was hanging one too close to my old ficustree.. her leafs were sort of getting transparant.. so now i know why.. 💚🙏👋
From what i have seen in the video of yours, i understood that led lights are the best to work with. I am an architect and am looking forward to understand what kind of grow lights can be used for creepers on a 8ft level in a house? few doubts that i have are : what is the amount of light needed by most of the creeper plants? is installing strip grow lights effective for the plants? please let me know for my understanding to make the client know more about this. ☮peace
I can see your grow lights are facing down on your dear little dogs eyes. Im told grow lights are unsafe to look into. This makes me worry about my cats as there hanging out in the lounge with my jungle 😅 also do you know if my SAD lamp could help my plants aswell. Im only asking becouse when i purchased my grow lights, i was looking at the coments and chap was saying he thinks they could. He gave a very long and interesting talk on it. Love your chanel so much. Ive been looking after plants for year's but still learning. So thank you. My friend who i hadn't seen in a too long a time said, you're like that lady on TH-cam you showed me. Plants everywhere. Ive been repotting and separating plants for two weeks now😅 runing out of space 😂😂😂 the jungle is massive so they say. Plants make me feel so happy, especially in the winter months. As soon as i open my eyes and see my beauty's, im happy. My cats love them too. They think there in the garden 😂 anyway's love your chanel and dogs are adorable ❤
The "mars hydro" one you showed, if it's anything near the specs they say, you're gonna burn the shit out of your plants unless you keep them way far back, which will waste the light (and be kinda annoying for situations other than grow tents) and the smaller lights are much better options for houseplants, because you can place them closer to the plant without burning the leaves, which makes it possible to hide the lights a little better.
Where can I find the "grow light" requirements for my individual plants? I'm new to this internet stuff and not good at it. Would you please point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance...:)
I think it was important to emphasize the need to research the light needs of each plant. I saw a video comparing the growth of a flowering plant under a 30w vs 15w bulb. The plant under the 15w grew more luscious leaves while the 30w grew small leaves and at a slower rate. However, the latter produced flowers first. I wonder if this means that plants with less light in general produce more leaves to try to catch more light for growth therefore producing more green foliage... I checked the video again and the plant that grew more foliage seems to have gotten a more focused intense beam...
To my knowledge unless you're up close enough for a grow light to burn your skin, I don't know of any negative side effects of having them in and around your home. In regards to regular LEDs, I've never personally tried it, but have heard that you can use regular LEDs so long as it provides enough PAR for your plants (I wouldn't have thought it would be as effective though)
Thank you for this!! Very informative!! I was on Amazon so confused on what the different colors do? Or if lights were just a gimmick. Deff gonna buy a light for a propagated succulent I was gifted by a friend.
Thank you, you are a pretty as a flower and your practical experience is was very much appreciated. I'm also dyslexic, but writing some of the information on the screen was quite helpful (I have a better visual memory). I'm hoping to grow vegetables inside until they're big enough to plant outside.... of course my wife has other plants she'll no doubt want in on the action.
Thanks for making this video I got a lavender plant as a gift I read online they need a lot of light so I was wondering if I can just use my aquarium lights?
My apartment gets very little direct sunlight. Im trying to get my hibiscus plant to bloom. Will shining household "warm white" Led lights on the plant help?
Thank u so much for this video am new to houseplants but have a vast collection. Am just starting to grow corms . From alocasia mother who died on me an a calathea orbifolia that died too !
@thejunglehaven Thanks very much for your extremely helpful information! I apologize for changing the organic vibe here, but I had a hard time focusing on your tips as I was really taken by that beautiful face of yours! I purchased the second example that you showed and I’m attempting to grow sunflower seeds for our summer, which is obviously your winter. I have never had success with the lights but unfortunately it’s my only option at the moment. I’m hoping your kind help, helps… 😊 Thanks again, you’re the BEST! ❤
Overall take on this video according to my understanding, led lights are not as expensive to use while others are. White lights cover all areas of the spectrum and need to be as close or as far away from said plant to get the right amount of light.
You actually need a combination of blue and red and they must be LED grow lights which are designed to provide Photosynthetic Active Radiation (PAR) which the plant uses for photosynthesis - regular white LEDs have little effect on a plant’s growth rate
@@TheJungleHaven there are several I can't remember the name of the one I used because I have stand alone light meter anyway. They give same reading as my meter and also give you a red, green, blue balance reading which my meter doesn't do.
hi, my English is not my main language. and therefor need confirmation, and overall sometimes misunderstand something. I got a monstera albo variegata. What light should i use?
Holy shit… I tend to thing of myself as a smart shopper and look at reviews but I never thought about some of these massively produced “trendy” products, that a lot of the ones with the most reviews could be bought and to look at the maybe 3.5-4.0 rated products. Not sure if that made sense… lol. But actually a really good point and something I’m going to start doing! ✌🏻☀️
Hey David, I don't have a video of the Mars Hydro ones as I don't currently have them set up, however I've got a video of my Mother grow lights (Grow Light Shelf Plant Tour) showing the full set up! That video is on my channel and I uploaded it about a month ago
I’m just getting into plants and this is probably a stupid question but are plants that are toxic to dogs not safe in the home? I have two shih Tzus who can’t reach my plants but I avoid toxic as I don’t know if it affects the air or only toxic if they are eaten? Pls help
Hi ! Love your videos. I set up a grow cabinet earlier this year and now that it’s summer I’m having issues with temperatures getting up to the 90s F inside the cabinet. I’ve tried better ventilation bringing in cooler air but the humidity drops so fast and defeats the purpose. I assume the issue is the heat coming off the grow lights but they’re Leds so I don’t think that I can find anything that runs cooler. If I split up the light schedule into 2 and turn off mid day and allow everything to cool down then turn back on to complete the necessary hours, do you think that will cause issues? Or do you have a better suggestion?
Where have you got your cabinet is it getting full sun throughout the day ? If it’s fully sealed glass then it will get super hot it is a green house after all it’s rare your led lights are going to cause such high temperatures like that unless the electric system itself is producing the heat or it’s already hot from the day probably best to move it that’s if it is getting heavy sun
I am in a dark apartment and the landlord pays the electric bill. How much light can I provide my plants before the landlord notices a jump in the bill? Is this something I should limit or can I go all out? I understand if you are not able to answer this question. Thank you.
I’m curious if you know or have heard of any of the LED grow lights damaging furniture, fabrics, electronics, just different materials, in general, if they are placed or have to be placed in close proximity due to space (apartment)? I want to try using grow lights but want to be cautious about what type. Thank you!
Hiya, I've personally never known that to happen. From my own experience I've had grow lights around the house for years and haven't noticed any damage ☺️
I have a massive elephant ear plant with 3 foot leaves and about 6 feet tall ( leaf point up) . I had to move it to an western facing window but about 10-15 feet away as it’s the closet I can get it now. I’m worried about winter and the lack of light . How many 6500 kelvin bulbs would you use to keep it happy . Please help I don’t want it to suffer .😢
Is there an advantage to using the white lights instead of purple, apart from the looks? Do they provide „better“ light because its a full spectrum? Or are they less intense?
They usually provide a full spectrum of light, whereas purple lights (although can be full spectrum) tend to give a higher concentration of red and blue - there are benefits to both for different plants/maturity of plants (as I spoke about in the video). For example, I'll use grow lights with a higher balance of red for my propagations and seedlings x
Full spectrum white led’s are usually better for all situations but can get different kelvin ratings depending on your needs. If you want a higher red spectrum go for 3000 kelvin white diodes, if looking for a bluer spectrums you could potentially go up to 6000kelvin. You can also get white diode lights with some added red diodes for a more red spectrum if needed, the purple grow lights tend to advertise full spectrum benefits but are rarely used nowadays for any type of horticulture in favour of white led’s as plants just seem to like that type of led a lot more.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge on this. Personally I’ve never thought about getting a grow light as I’ve always wanted to keep plants in a natural environment. (I know keeping tropical plants in a U.K. home probably isn’t natural) but you know what I mean. I didn’t like the idea of using electricity on keeping my plants alive. However I’m worried about winter when the light starts to fade and reduce down. I have lots of Calatheas and at the moment they are growing well at the back of my west facing room but I fear come winter their current location will be too dark.
Searching for beginners grow lights, watched this for half a second, saw a dog and subscribed ☺️ 🐦🐦🪨 Triggered by the Tail hitting plants for sure but my pups loves being a jungle dog ☺️
I started some microgreens 3days ago using a propagator and one of those clip LED with the 2 arms. Never used either of them before. My seedlings are 3days old and have already grown more than 1cm. Is this normal?
Hey, I'm just a little concerned about sleeping with a room full of grow lights on. Is it bad for skin and makes skin aging faster? Does it have the same effect as tanning?
I personally never sleep with my grow lights on - I've either got them on a timer, or turn them off when I go to bed. I've never experienced any skin damage from grow lights, but I wouldn't recommend sitting right under them for long periods of time 💚
Good day, my window sill size 11.5 x 57 inches and another about twice longer, Im looking for an easy installing lamp or a few to accommodate my plants in a winter. In a simmer they r on a balcony. Pls advice the best option to add lights, cause my side is West and I dont get as much light as necessary, especially for berries. The plants on window sills are placed tight, so the best option i guess should be- to hang something over them? I also prefer the full spectrum. Thank you in advance. All the best!

If I split up the light schedule into 2 and turn off mid day and allow everything to cool down then turn back on to complete the necessary hours, do you think that will cause issues? Or do you have a better suggestion?

Where have you got your cabinet is it getting full sun throughout the day ? If it’s fully sealed glass then it will get super hot it is a green house after all it’s rare your led lights are going to cause such high temperatures like that unless the electric system itself is producing the heat or it’s already hot from the day probably best to move it that’s if it is getting heavy sun
You sound like a News presenter from BBC Tv channel and you are really good 👍
Thanks for the video. Just what i was looking for
I like to turn my grow lights on at night. Should I not put them on my Prayer plants because it might interrupt their cycle of opening and closing?
Thanks for the great info! ❤
Do you take any precautions with protecting your eyes from all the LED lights?
Unrelated question. What camera are you using? Super super clear and high def.
I am in a dark apartment and the landlord pays the electric bill. How much light can I provide my plants before the landlord notices a jump in the bill? Is this something I should limit or can I go all out? I understand if you are not able to answer this question. Thank you.
I’ve bought a pair of 30watt 6500k security style LED floodlights, are these ok?
Thank you so much! I'm a bit confused about the bulbs. Can I just buy a grow light bulb and put it in any lamp? Thank you to anyone who can help! 😊😊
The matrix doesn’t want me to watch this video but some how I can watch Netflix, no problem there 🤔
What is the best color and grow light for a peace lily. My house diesnt hv enough light.
extremely helpful thankyou for making this vid
I’m curious if you know or have heard of any of the LED grow lights damaging furniture, fabrics, electronics, just different materials, in general, if they are placed or have to be placed in close proximity due to space (apartment)? I want to try using grow lights but want to be cautious about what type. Thank you!
Hiya, I've personally never known that to happen. From my own experience I've had grow lights around the house for years and haven't noticed any damage ☺️
I have a massive elephant ear plant with 3 foot leaves and about 6 feet tall ( leaf point up) . I had to move it to an western facing window but about 10-15 feet away as it’s the closet I can get it now.
I’m worried about winter and the lack of light . How many 6500 kelvin bulbs would you use to keep it happy . Please help I don’t want it to suffer .😢
Is nir near 660/880 nanometer bad? I use a ir therapy panel for my skin. Tried for plants and they 3 days later got black holes at the leaves!!! :(
I bought a light from Amazon that’s LED, do you think it would work? It’s 6 watts
Is there an advantage to using the white lights instead of purple, apart from the looks? Do they provide „better“ light because its a full spectrum? Or are they less intense?
They usually provide a full spectrum of light, whereas purple lights (although can be full spectrum) tend to give a higher concentration of red and blue - there are benefits to both for different plants/maturity of plants (as I spoke about in the video). For example, I'll use grow lights with a higher balance of red for my propagations and seedlings x
Full spectrum white led’s are usually better for all situations but can get different kelvin ratings depending on your needs. If you want a higher red spectrum go for 3000 kelvin white diodes, if looking for a bluer spectrums you could potentially go up to 6000kelvin. You can also get white diode lights with some added red diodes for a more red spectrum if needed, the purple grow lights tend to advertise full spectrum benefits but are rarely used nowadays for any type of horticulture in favour of white led’s as plants just seem to like that type of led a lot more.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge on this. Personally I’ve never thought about getting a grow light as I’ve always wanted to keep plants in a natural environment. (I know keeping tropical plants in a U.K. home probably isn’t natural) but you know what I mean. I didn’t like the idea of using electricity on keeping my plants alive. However I’m worried about winter when the light starts to fade and reduce down. I have lots of Calatheas and at the moment they are growing well at the back of my west facing room but I fear come winter their current location will be too dark.
hi my japanese maples are protecred from full sun by tinted glass cause theyre sensative but they dont get their nice colors, what do you suggest I do
Searching for beginners grow lights, watched this for half a second, saw a dog and subscribed ☺️ 🐦🐦🪨
Triggered by the Tail hitting plants for sure but my pups loves being a jungle dog ☺️
Suggestions for meyers lemon tree. Any specific difference?
Excellent, informative video!
Amazing video, thank you so
Ty!!!
So, with a 680 lumen led bulb, i would need 4 of them for 1 square foot? That sounds like surface of the sun brightness
I started some microgreens 3days ago using a propagator and one of those clip LED with the 2 arms. Never used either of them before. My seedlings are 3days old and have already grown more than 1cm. Is this normal?
That's great - it depends on what it is you're growing, but I'd say it sounds like they're doing well!
@@TheJungleHaven thank you! I cut some of them already, gonna let some grow to full maturity.
so what lights should i use for foliage green vine-y plants? i’m new ❤️
Hey, I'm just a little concerned about sleeping with a room full of grow lights on. Is it bad for skin and makes skin aging faster? Does it have the same effect as tanning?
I personally never sleep with my grow lights on - I've either got them on a timer, or turn them off when I go to bed. I've never experienced any skin damage from grow lights, but I wouldn't recommend sitting right under them for long periods of time 💚
@@TheJungleHaven aw thank u so much. I finally made a decision about what time it would be the best to turn it on and set it up. Thank u so much!
Do you also have a recommendation for a growlight with only one strip?
Good day, my window sill size 11.5 x 57 inches and another about twice longer, Im looking for an easy installing lamp or a few to accommodate my plants in a winter. In a simmer they r on a balcony. Pls advice the best option to add lights, cause my side is West and I dont get as much light as necessary, especially for berries. The plants on window sills are placed tight, so the best option i guess should be- to hang something over them? I also prefer the full spectrum. Thank you in advance. All the best!
What lights would be good for a variegated monstera? I’m worried mine isn’t strong enough.
I'm currently using Mother grow lights and they're personally the best I've used (linked in description) 💚
