20 Best Grow Light For Fiddle Leaf Fig (2023 Updated)

These things are pretty neat. The flex arms are perfect and hold their position well, though time will tell if that stays true. The lights are a bit weird, with the blue/red, and make the room look strange.

I wish it was just white. They are bright, however. The timer is okay, but only allows 3/6/12 hour settings, and you can’t pick the start time for them. Meaning, you press 6 hours, and 6 hours is then locked in to start at the moment you set it.

Some more functionality in the timer would be nice. However, in an apartment with no windows, these things are keeping my plants looking amazing through the winter, and I do not regret buying them. Upgrade the timer by just a bit, and it becomes a solid 5 star product.

Have recommended them to friends and family already.

So I am new to gardening and growing plants. I specifically focus on growing herbs in my home to use in cooking and thought it would be helpful to use a grow light to aid in the growth of my plants. After some research I decided this would be worth the try to see if it helped.

Of course I was curious to determine if I could get measurable results to determine if it was worth the buy. So I proceeded to use the same seeds and plant them in areas; one with direct exposure from the light consistently and another with only normal sunlight.

Before I get to the results a quick comment on the quality of the bulb. The first thing you will notice is this bulb is heavy, it is solidly built with nice plastic and a good thick glass lens on it.

SO you will need to plan your lighting appropriately to make sure it can support the weight of the bulb. The bulb also has a nice spectrum , which if you happen to catch a direct hit from the light, you will see every color the bulb produced in vivid color.

The bulb also produces a nice amount of heat, not too much where it will worry but comfortable and seems good for plants. Back to the experiment, I conducted the experiment for two weeks and monitored the growth of each of the plants.

After a couple days I got my first sprouts and was very pleased. Of course I know there is naturally going to be a randomness in germination rates, so I won’t include any analysis there. Overall from what I could discern, the bulb was effective in providing my plants the extra light and warmth they need to grow faster and taller.

There was a noticeable difference (I won’t bore with the actual metrics) but it was clear to see the difference. Another caveat of course is this wasn’t the most strict scientific method to ensure valid results, but for my purposes it was enough to prove the bulb was worth the investment.

If you are looking for that extra light and warmth or just don’t have any convenient areas in your house that are conducive to plant growth,t his is a great alternative that will get you the results.

The GE LED+ Speaker Soft White 65W Replacement Indoor LED Floodlight is extremely nice! This bulb has the convenience of a Bluetooth speaker and the practicality of a flood light bulb wrapped in one.

There are no cords to worry about and no battery life to watch compared to a regular Bluetooth speaker. This light is so easy to install, pair with other speaker bulbs, and it works really well. The instructions are clear and easy to understand.

It’s as simple as screwing it in, turning it on, finding it with your Bluetooth enabled device, and selecting it. Then it’s automatically a Bluetooth speaker that needs no other maintenance. It works flawlessly with other bulbs; automatically pairing them together once turned on.

The light itself looks nice; it gives off a nice warm but bright glow. The light bulb is significantly heavier than a regular non-speaker bulb, but my sockets didn’t have any issues accommodating the weight, the size overall is the same and fit in place of my existing floodlight bulbs.

The sound quality is that of a nice Bluetooth speaker. I love the overhead sound it creates. The remote is easy to use; the buttons are straightforward, and the remote is attractive. It gives you full control over the light and the music in one simple remote.

Another nice feature is that you don’t have to have the light on to be using the speaker. There are times I don’t need a light but can definitely use some music so I appreciate it still working even when the bulb is off.

I also like that you can change the light intensity with the remote as well. Overall, this is a really nice floodlight speaker LED light bulb. It’s super easy to use and the sound and light quality are great.

I would absolutely recommend it.

I use these lights to grow phytoplankton for the oyster farm deep inside my masters subteranean volcano lair and they work great! Lots of little phytoplanktons means lots of happy oysters which means a very satisfied evil genius! Bwahahahaha!.

Thats how Im using it. Works well. Decent build quality for what it is. 20 gal nano tank.

It puts off quite a bit of artificiall light for such a small compact ffixture for my plants. Perfect. Glad I bought them.

I bought this for my house plants, and it was helping them grow well for the last 16 months, but this morning it would not turn on. I have it on a timer to turn it on for 11 hours a day. Expensive garbage now, as it does not have any replaceable parts.

I will not make this mistake again, and am looking at buying a fixture with replaceable bulbs.

Pro: My plants are happy, lights can be chained together, and the tone of light is reasonably pleasant. The pictures make it look more reddish than it appears in person. Neutral: They’re not very bright.

That could be a pro or a con depending on what you want. In my case, I’m working in a compact space, so brighter lights might’ve been overly harsh to my plants. Con: They’re made entirely of plastic.

There’s no e. g. metal spine to make them especially sturdy. Also, the reflectors do an OK job of directing light downwards, but not a great job.

SF2000 made in China, I’m not impressed. The other lights that look like it. I’m sure are just as good. My 2 star review reflects only from my ownership of high quality reef aquarium lights. The technology spider farmer puts in to these lights is next to nothing.

I feel like if I handle this thing regularly it will break. The stupid hoist string idea just seems dumb so much extra string what the heck do I do with the rat nest?the power cord is thicker than one of my dewalt drills.

I order the sf2000 kit over a week ago and I’m still waiting. spider farmer still hasn’t processed my order and still hasn’t shipped it. I was extremely excited for this product as it’s my first grow.

The product looked good and the company had strong reviews. But not everything is as it seems. Like I said still haven’t got it. I will be looking to cancel my order and going with another company. Hopefully y’all have better experience then me.

But for me its 0 stars cause I never got the product. Spider farmer please fix your customer service. And shipping problems. Thanks.

I purchased a SF 4000 on Oct. 20th and my light was delivered on Oct. 26th. Oct. 27th UPS delivered a second light. To my surprise after checking credit card statement, I was charged for another light the day after my purchase.

This is very unsettling that this could happen with this Company’s Website and their ability to protect customers payment info. 24hrs or so after contacting the company to make them aware as to what’s going on, they say I have to pay shipping costs to return because there is no defect in the light itself.

I did not order this light a second time, but I have to pay to ship it back or be out the $500 for this light I do not need nor have no room for. Website will not communicate back with me about giving me a return address for this light and issue a refund to fix this problem.

I’ll never use this company again and would advise others to use at their own risk. So the free shipping I recieved on my original order, now looks negated after having to pay shipping fees to send back a light I did not order twice.

🤦‍♂️ I should have just used Mars Hydro again. Their customer service is on point and very helpful. Trying to save a Buck $ has now cost me more. Plus this is a China owned company. Even more unsettling about how loose they obviously are with customers payment info.

And the first light that was delivered, had 3 loose screws in the box. After inspecting the ballasts I notice the 3 small screws were not even screwed in during assembly. They were just thrown loosely down in the box.

I did install them where they should have been installed before delivery. And there was no ratcheting ropes with hardware to hang the light. I had to go to Lowe’s and buy 2! 🤦‍♂️ I do not recommend this company to anyone.

Do Not use or Use at a High Risk.

used this for about a week before roller on off switch stopped working. got it to work and then where plug fits into bulb kept coming loose, then plastic end came away from bulb. only way it works is manually pressing ends of bulb together and holding them.

not worth $45. had high hpes for this product, but it is very flimsy.

If only I could rate this 0 stars! Buyer beware!! The light itself works but the stand is junk. I tried to assemble the stand and it broke on six of the assembly points. I can’t believe the poor quality of this item.

It’s a $47 piece of JUNK!!!! Plantation Products, LLC should be ashamed of themselves for the rip-off they are peddling. I would not recommend this item.

The frame is made very cheap. One of the inserts for the framing rods broke while putting it together. I would rather buy a T5 light from somewhere else and build my own frame.

Lasted thru one growing session, about 2-3 mths. When I went to start the second “season” they were dead. I hv tried to order replacements but apparently they are not available. My garden, which I was initially pleased with is a BIG disappointment.

With no lites it’s perfectly useless!.

My Bad. I gave rating at 3 star. Ordered the grow lites instead of the LED ‘s. Will get with aero garden to see if they can help, in ordering the right ones. Have had a 7 Pod for approximately 5 years Great product.

Thanks.

This is a great starter light for a great price. It beats out most other LED lights around the same price tag. I never really messed with the controller besides changing the light intensity as I have a outside timer to go with the schedule.

I look forward to them to continue making progress on these LED lights and maybe down the road have a little more output upgrades.

IšverstiShow in original languageIt’s hard to find a mid-priced LED strong enough for flowering and fruiting plants. I wasn’t. convinced when I first bought this, but so far my two Feit 3-Setting lights have been up to the task.

I’m growing an indoor 2×4 vegetable garden for the off-season with great progress, but there are a few caveats to keep in mind: The Good: – all of my plants respond very well to the lights – the variety of light settings do seem to work for their respective growth stages – barely any heat emitted, even after 18+hrs on, no running noise – great 1.

8 PAR efficiency, 1. 5 is considered efficient – my cherry tomatoes are fruiting with the light well-contained to only a 2×2 space The Bad: – the directions are not complete about setting up an optimal grow space – no mention of ventilation, reflective walls, light leakage which are all really important indoor growing conditions.

Only mention buying more of their lights to add intensity – confusing and convoluted wording in the manual, especially in the light distance and plant biology sections. I had trouble understanding how far my lights should hang from the plant canopy, but figured it out on my own after some experimenting.

All in all I’m really happy with the light. I just wish Feit had given customers more detail and insight into how to contain indoor grow light’s rays to stay concentrated on plants. You’re not likely to find another LED with this level of growing power for the price.

IšverstiShow in original languageSo I’ve been running several of these for a few months now during our darkest winter days and nights, and I’ve now ordered more because I like them so much. Previously I was running halogens giving half the lumens for four times the wattage, so now I’m saving energy and getting way more brightness.

They do sometimes flicker but I think that is more dependent on your switch hardware and wiring (are there other devices on the same circuit?), and in my experience most LED bulbs will flicker in these situations.

I haven’t seen anyone else offering B10s that put out this much light. I have some rooms that rely on a single B10 for their main lighting source (ceiling fan fixtures) and finally, these ones can handle the job.

I highly recommend.

IšverstiShow in original languageThese worked for a while, then they started rapidly blinking and had to disconnect them. My power supply had plenty of rated wattage, but it turned out they were incompatible.

After speaking with an electrician, I learned that LEDs aren’t like other lights, which you can mix and match. They’re electronic devices, and the power’s actual waveform (not just voltage and wattage) must match too, or the results are unpredictable.

He said people commonly try to add third-party bulbs like these to systems where bulbs with certain specifications must be provided by the manufacturer. We’re in the midst of moving and I have no idea where our receipt is, or I’d return them.

While we’ve only started seeds in a plastic tray with this light close above. BUT. It has boosted the growth of the seeds we planted no end. We planted seeds on Sunday and had the first few shoots 4/5 days later.

Full tray seedling growth around 6 or 7 days. The hue from this light is not like shown. It’s a gentler pink~white. Which as a light generally (in your personal space) is quite a nice. Being that it’s not overly intrusive.

I was using regular 100W incandescent bulbs to keep my cuttings alive over the winter. The 15w replacement grow light bulbs were brighter, and I could readjust the lamp without burning my hands. The LED lamps put out heat, but not even close to as hot as an incandescent bulb.

I would describe it more as “warm to the touch. ” I liked these bulbs because I didn’t have to modify any of my existing lamps. They are ready to screw into an existing socket.

I got the veg model without all the green (white light), and they are very good units. However they are not ramped up to a good 6500K that is especially good for the kind of seedlings I work with, but even so, they are good solid units, and will be good for other things like for revegetating a plant or other such times of my own hobby growing.

Even though these lamps emit a purple glow, it is not a heavy purple glow like some LEDs, but has a cast closer to what the T12 Plant/Aquarium bulb would have, so it does not drive you crazy like a thick heavy colored party type of light that is so unnatural, that only a kid could appreciate.

Kewel! There is just a touch of the green spectrum on these, but there is some. I am sure their products will just get better. They appear to be quality orientated. You can tell. Junk never fools anyone, not eventually.

Used this one for indoor miniature rose. So far worked perfectly. The rose grew 4 inches after just one week. Unlike visually annoying purple hue led grow lights, it retains good room atmosphere, acts as a good spot light.

TraduireAfficher dans la langue originaleI’ve never been lucky with keeping plants alive. I have had several plants over the years and no matter how attentive I am to them they always die. I have never attempted to use grow lights so I had to do some research to figure out which color lights do what.

I have limited natural light in my home based on where the sun rises and sets and how my house is configured. I like that this has not only an adjustable timer but that I can also choose the between three light colors which all do different things.

The flexible arms make it easy to use this light for multiple plants and the clip or base option makes it easy to setup no matter how much or how little space you have. I’ll be interested to see if this will help me keep my plants alive.

TraduireAfficher dans la langue originaleWow ! This plant light is truly awesome. It is flexible in multiple ways. It has an adjustable timer that you can set for three , six or nine hours ! I love that feature.

You can also move it around easily because it can clip onto anything you want and it also is a stand. I have really enjoyed being able to move it around from different plants and vegetation that I am growing.

It has blue lights for vegetation growth and red lights for flowering growth. It also comes with a mounting bracket if you would like it to be stationary. This is a great replacement for any of the areas in your house that lack natural sunlight.

TraduireAfficher dans la langue originaleI was sent a Bell + Howell Growburst Light by the TryIt Sampling Community to use and review. I’ve always wanted to use grow lights indoors, but could never justify the cost if they didn’t work.

So I was very happy to receive and try this product. My house has limited windows, so I get hardly any light in many rooms for plant growing. This product was easy to set up and start. Plus the three separate lights make it easy to use it over several plants at a time.

The two best features are the adjustable timer and the color selection options. A very useful product that can be used year after year. I recommend it.

Une bonne lampe de croissance qui n’est pas trop dispendieuse. Assez facile à installer, mais attention, si vos lampes sont de lots de production différents, les trous pour les vis ne seront pas tous à la même place! La lumière est très blanche sans être super éblouissanteni désagréable aux yeux, donc convenable dans les pièces à plusieurs fonctions.

Le cordon électrique a une bonne longueur, donc donne de la flexibilité pour l’installation. N’ayant pas de photomètre, je ne peux pas confirmer le taux de luminosité, mais je ne pense pas que c’est aussi puissant qu’indiqué sur l’emballage: en tout cas, le rayon de luminosité n’est pas aussi large qu’indiqué 2″x2″.

ce n’est pas un problème pour la plupart des plantes d’intérieur, qui en générale n’ont besoin qu’un supplément de lumière. Par contre, pour les semis, il faut s’assurer de les placer juste en-dessous de la lampe, au-delà de 15cm de chaque côté de la lampe, les semis s’étiolent.

Puisque les lampes ne sont pas super chères, le problème peut être réglé en mettant 2 lampes côte à côte pour les étagères de plus de 30cm de largeur.

C’est excellent pour commencer ses semis. Les plantes sont plus fortes, plus trapues Ils ne gaspillent pas leur énergie en cherchant de la lumière.

J’ai fait mes semis et je suis très surprise de la rapidité de croissance

I have been spending money on grow light bulbs for the last six months and never satisfiedWell that has come to an end, Sandi grow light bulbs are the best I have found,within minutes my leaves on my tropical hibiscus plants puffed up and some even cupped up and stood up towards these lights.

Im sold on Sansi grow lights, I have been buying them now every week to replace every grow light I haveThe 36 Watt ones are perfect for hanging over several plants and I use the 15 watts for clamp or pole lights at an angle to get light beneath the canopy and its working greatnew limbs and leaves are sprouting everywhereDont be fooled by the wattage, these lights put out plenty of light and PPFD to make your plants thrive not just survive,.

%50 failure rate w/in weeks they do not stand by their awful product. Buying these lights is just like throwing your money away. These people will lie to you about returns and replacements hoping that you will just give up on them!.

Great Light with high PAR output I rate the light 4 stars out of 5 only because they have to keep overhead low and prices down to keep a lock on the bottom tier lights. If you will note they will give no info or insight on the overall CCT “color” of the light overall.

These are great to get the job done for a cheaper price. I only wish they would start a panel light series with more IR and addition of UVB diodes would be great to make the lights better for flower than veg.

The only downfall to these lights. Due to the lack of UVA/B diodes and running the minimal amount of Red and IR extends the plants life cycle and makes it take longer to finish. Other than this, what keeps the price down, they’re really unbeatable.

Just don’t try to get than cct report ? Maybe it’s too far from optimal 3500k to mention. Or maybe R&D is slipping? either way buy, learn, practice and probably move on unless they start a new series.

I’m crossing my fingers and been asking them as well.

I have had several LEDs and Im really liking the full spectrum white lighting thats out. I also like the pinks. Hmm. I however went with a bar type setup for uniformity and because I didnt like the rectangular shape of the xs/p series 2500/4000 lights.

Had they been squared I probably would have stuck with them, but Im definitely not upset with the competition. There are some really good lights out there and I had to do a lot of research. great starter/veg light.

I still use it for vegetative gardening, but I use my Ze510(which is a steal) and supplemental lighting for fruiting. Amazing veg light. Good fruiting light. Would I buy it again – no. Would I recommend on a budget – absolutely.

Would I say save up or aim higher – honestly – most certainly. Im an honest type. some stiff competition out there with great rates and Love the friggin heat sink on this thing though. Great value item.

The top-line just isnt there on the higher end items compared to others.

Compared to other 2000W grow lights, this light had more LEDS than all the other lights I looked at. It has a dimmer knob so you can give the exact amount of full spectrum light to your plants. Comes with easily adjustable hangers.

My plants love the color of light that this grow light puts out. They have grown more in the first week since I’ve been using it than in two weeks of prior growth with my other light of the same wattage.

Worth the money!!!.

We have found the Kind LED K5 operates as advertised, has a sleek design, is easy to use, runs cool and draws less power than the HPS 1000w units. The timer function is very convenient eliminating the need for us to use our own timers.

I needed a light that could be used for the whole growth cycle for my various herbs… Lowered my power bill with the timer function! Just make sure you guys check your LED temps and you’re set.
