2, Know the size of your growing room.

A good rule-of-thumb for LED grow lights is 32W of actual wattage per square foot of growing space for flowering medical or other large flowering plants. Vegetative growth for high-light plants needs about half this wattage.)

3, Consider the Spectrum and Par

Full spectrum led grow light can satisfy all growth cycles of plants, but also need to consider IR & UV.

Photosynthetically Active Radiation or PAR is the light that is beneficial to plants. It is the alternative to sunlight that plants use so they can photosynthesize. LED grow lights can have different PAR values depending on the manufacturer. With that said, a higher PAR value does not necessarily mean the bulb is better. The PAR should be evenly distributed among the plants.

4, Cooling System

The LED grow light can overheat, especially if you use it for at least 12 hours a day for sufficient light for the plants. As mentioned, excessive heat can be harmful to your plants and the unit itself. So, your LED grow lights should have an efficient cooling system. That’s why more growers replace the HPS/HID/MH

With Spider Farmer: SF series with aluminum thick board design, SE series with led bar design. All good for heat dissipation. ( We suggest growers use a cooling system when the LED light works over 8 hours a day)

Except for these main factors, also pay attention to the safety certificate, quality, and warranty service.
