Its compactness facilitates precise positioning to maximize coverage in hard-to-reach lower areas, thus providing an ideal supplement to enhance light penetration under the SCROG net. In summary, this lamp offers better efficiency and adaptability in SCROG cultivation, precisely targeting light where it's most needed, with reduced energy impact and silent passive thermal management.

Question 4

What is the average durability of LEDs on this P-LED 26W BLOOM strip and their evolution of brightness over time?

Accepted Answer

The Schneidleisten P-LED 26W BLOOM 55 cm strip uses horticultural LEDs designed to last generally over 50,000 hours, which is the standard for this type of product. Over time, it is normal for brightness to decrease slightly, but these modules are designed to maintain stable and efficient performance throughout their lifespan, particularly suitable for young plants and cuttings in indoor cultivation.

Question 5

What is the optimal distance between the P-LED 26W BLOOM 55 cm bar and the plants to maximize growth without risking leaf burn?

Accepted Answer

For the P-LED 26W BLOOM 55 cm bar, the optimal distance is between 10 and 40 cm depending on the stage of development and the species of your plants. For cuttings and young shoots, placing the bar closer (around 10-15 cm) will promote vigorous growth without the risk of burning. However, for older plants, it is better to slightly increase this distance to avoid any stress or damage to the leaves. Always monitor your plants' reactions to adjust the height accordingly.

Question 6

Are PLED 26W bloom 55cm bars sufficient as the main lighting in a micro-cultivation space of 40x40 cm?

Accepted Answer

For a micro-cultivation space of 40x40 cm, the P-LED 26W BLOOM 55 cm bar is perfectly suited as the main lighting, particularly for cuttings and young plants. Its power of 26W, equivalent to about 36W HPS, provides sufficient light for this small volume, with a Bloom spectrum specifically designed for this vegetative stage. Its compact size and low heat generation allow for installation close to the plants, ensuring optimal coverage without clutter or noise. However, if your cultivation progresses to more advanced phases, particularly flowering, this bar alone may lack intensity. For cuttings in this micro space, it remains an excellent choice for main lighting.

Question 7

What is the maximum depth of cultivation for cuttings with the P-LED 26W BLOOM 55 cm strip to ensure sufficient PAR for the seedlings?

Accepted Answer

The P-LED 26W BLOOM 55 cm strip is specifically designed for cuttings and young plants with a spectrum and power suitable for this phase. To ensure sufficient PAR (200 to 400 µmol/m²/s), it is recommended not to exceed a substrate depth of approximately 10 to 15 cm. Beyond that, the light may no longer be optimal at the base of the plants, and additional lighting may be necessary.

Question 8

What is the exact electricity consumption of the P-LED 26W BLOOM 55cm ramp over a 12-hour cycle per day and what is the real light output with a PAR greater than 70%?

Accepted Answer

Accepted Answer

The P-LED 26W BLOOM 55 cm cutting kit is perfectly suited for beginners. Its 26W power and Bloom spectrum promote rapid and healthy growth of young plants, thanks to good light penetration and high PAR. Easy to install, this lightweight and compact bar can be easily hung with the provided hooks or plastic ties. It is ready to use, without the need for additional ballast or driver. Note that it does not allow chaining multiple bars in series; each unit operates independently. It will fit very well for a small growing space or as a supplement in a larger setup. The Bloom spectrum effectively stimulates rapid growth of cuttings while limiting heat, which allows for close positioning to plants without the risk of overheating.

Question 10

What is the exact ratio of PAR photons emitted per watt consumed by this P-LED 26W BLOOM 55cm bar and how does it compare in terms of g/W to other similar LED bars on the market?

Accepted Answer

The P-LED 26W BLOOM 55 cm LED bar offers a ratio of approximately 2.0 µmol/J (micromoles per joule), meaning it emits about 2 micromoles of PAR photons per second for every watt consumed. With a total flux of 52 µmol/s, this efficiency is solid for a small bar designed for cuttings and young plants. Compared to other similar LED bars ranging from 20 to 30W, which generally display between 1.8 and 2.2 µmol/J, the P-LED 26W BLOOM ranks in the upper average. However, it still falls short of more powerful and high-end horticultural panels, such as the Q420 V2 model, which reaches about 2.7 µmol/J due to better thermal management and an optimized spectrum. In summary, this bar is an excellent choice for small-space cultivation or propagation phases, offering a good balance between power consumption and light efficiency.

Question 11

What is the recommended optimal daily lighting duration for this LED bar to maximize growth without risking stress for cuttings?

Accepted Answer
