The 2024 Spider Farmer® Supplemental Far Red 730nm LED Light Bar Set for Plants (35.4”) – Model: IR30 is engineered to enhance plant growth and development by providing targeted far-red light. Below is a comprehensive overview of its features and specifications:
1. Purpose and Application
Designed to supplement existing grow lights, the IR30 light bar emits far-red light at 730nm, which is beneficial for various plant growth stages, including stem elongation, flowering induction, and promoting light-induced sleep cycles.
2. Light Spectrum
The light bar operates within the 730-745nm wavelength range, delivering far-red light that influences phytochrome responses in plants, thereby enhancing flowering and fruiting processes.
3. LED Configuration
Each 35.4-inch (90cm) light bar is equipped with 88 high-quality diodes, ensuring uniform and intense light distribution across the plant canopy.
4. Power Consumption
The IR30 consumes approximately 15 watts per bar, making it an energy-efficient addition to your lighting setup.
5. Physical Dimensions
The light bar measures 35.4 inches in length, 1.21 inches in width, and 1.36 inches in height (90 x 3.08 x 3.45 cm), allowing for easy integration into various grow environments.
6. Coverage Area
Optimally designed for a core coverage area of 4 feet by 2 feet, the IR30 is suitable for use in grow tents and rooms of similar dimensions.
7. Installation and Compatibility
The light bar comes with a power cord measuring 60 inches (150 cm) and includes YoYo hangers and cable ties for secure installation. It is compatible with Spider Farmer's bar-style lights, enabling the placement of supplemental light bars between existing bars for enhanced light distribution.
8. Usage Recommendations
For optimal results, it is recommended to operate the IR30 light bar for 15 minutes before the main light switches on and 15 minutes after it turns off. This timing helps in promoting flowering induction and regulating plant sleep cycles.
9. Build Quality
Constructed with a durable metal casing, the IR30 is designed to withstand the rigors of indoor cultivation environments, ensuring longevity and consistent performance.
10. Package Contents
The set includes two Far Red light bars (each 35.4 inches in length), one power cord (60 inches), four YoYo hangers, and ten cable ties for securing power cords, providing all necessary components for immediate setup and use.
By integrating the Spider Farmer IR30 into your grow setup, you can effectively enhance plant growth, improve flowering, and optimize overall plant health through targeted far-red light supplementation.
