LED Grow Light 225 LEDs Plant Lights Red Blue White Panel Growing Lamps for Indoor Plants Seedling Vegetable and Flower (2 Pack)

I just bought these grow lights because I want to start seeds growing for my garden this spring. I did a lot of research to make sure I got appropriate lights for this task. After searching options, these lights fit what I was looking for and were a decent cost. I obviously haven’t used them yet, so I can’t comment on their effectiveness. I’ll come back later and let you know how this turns out. However, once I received the lights, I did unpack them to look them over and turn them on. I can tell you the lights come in pairs and are very protectively packed. I’m keeping the boxes because they’ll be good for storage. The square frames are light weight, have a thoughtfully simple design and come with great little hangers, which I will use. The lights turned on immediately once plugged in and I could see the three colors of lights and how they were distributed. This is my first time working with LED grow lights. I look forward to seeing how they perform. I’ll let you know. Also, the lights arrived very timely, there was no waiting beyond the expected day of arrival. I knew right away when to expect delivery, which is always helpful. I also liked the information they provided about the lights when I was reading their listing.**** I am now three months later and I can tell you that these lights have worked so well that I just ordered another pair as my plants are getting bigger and I need to cover more space. I planted tomato, pepper, eggplant, kale, broccoli, basil, marjoram and thyme seeds on March 15th, 2021. The tomato plants and eggplants were just transferred into bigger cups and I need to transplant the pepper plants now. I couldn’t believe the beautiful root development on all the plants, which tells me the plants are getting what they need. The tomato plants are fully developing their second and third layer of mature leaves. I lowered the lights to 12” above the little seed pots once the plants started popping up from the seeds. I had a 98% germination rate. I am about to raise the lights as the plants are getting taller and their main stalks are really nice and sturdy. I would definitely recommend these lights to home gardeners who want to start seeds inside to get a good start on their garden plants. We live in Zone 4-3 and our growing season is fast and short. ****UPDATE: It is now 2 years later (2023) and I just purchased another pair of these lights, they should be here tomorrow. The original 3 pair that I started out with are still working really well. I hooked them all up 2 days ago and this year I will be growing WATERMELON!!! I am so excited and I hope all goes well as I so miss USA southern grown, seeded watermelon. Here in zone 3/4 it is really challenging to grow things like watermelon as our season is so short. So I have started them inside with 2 of the grow lights over them. This is my third time using the lights for starting my garden plants and they have been excellent each time!! All the little lights still work, they are easy to hang and raise or lower as needed (I use 2 inch binder rings for raising and lowering) and they are as bright as can be. I use them from mid-February through the end of April or mid-May depending on the weather. This early start really saves money and gives such a boost to getting ready for the garden. Once I am done using them for the spring, I put them back in the boxes they came in because the boxes store the lights and all the hardware really well. Now, I can HIGHLY recommend these grow lights.

Good quality. Extremely easy to assemble straight out of the box, the quality of the lights is amazing! The light produces the photosynthesis process and provided an ultra fast and rich growing environment for the seeds! There are two large lights in my opinion! I will be using these lights even after IGo and plant my sprouted seedlings in my garden bed I will still attempt to use these lights to grow some strawberries and tomato’s indoors! I would go go lay recommend this set for your indoor growing or even outdoor?

I bought these lights to transform our under the stairs closet into a little grow room. I added some hooks on the ceiling and some chain to attach these lights to. I plugged the lights into a timer, so they turn off at night to give the plants the correct amount (14-16 hours) of light. Upon install, it was a little difficult to get these lights to hang level. They tipped with the weight of the cord coming out one side, so I had to tack the cord up so it didn’t tip the light. After that though, these have worked great to start seeds and grow microgreens. The lights seem quite bright, and only generate a little bit of heat. I don’t think I’ll have a problem with the lights heating up so much that they burn my plants.A few cons: These lights don’t daisy chain together, so there ends up being lots of cords that you have to deal with. I can’t imagine dealing with cords for more than two lights. Also, due to the color of the lights, my plants don’t look green. They actually look kind of brownish and dead under the lights. It freaked me out at first, thinking all my plants suddenly died, but they are a healthy green color when viewed under “normal” house lights. I guess since these lights don’t have many white lights, there isn’t any green light to reflect. Weird, and I’ll have to get used to my plants looking different, but this doesn’t affect the performance of the lights at all.

I used these last year hung from a wire shelf, but this year I realized I could fit the light and seedling tray into an IKEA kallax/expedit cubby shelf! So I set one up with an upside down wire basket to hold the lights up. Works great.Worked well last year too, but I don't think I have photos of the set up.

Oh yes the grow lights work very well.

These lights do put off some good amount of light, but to get adequate coverage for a larger surface area than 3x3 you will need to buy more. These do not daisy chain so you can’t hook them together to one power cord. There are no buttons or switches to turn it off or on. It’s best to use with a timer plug or a smart plug but again one cord to each light. For the price it’s effective at small indoor grows and great for beginners learning the importance of light and photosynthesis, but I would rather have spent more money to get ones that daisy chain and has power switches to control the light. A remote would be ideal. Great for the cost but if you’re growing on a larger scale go for ones that connect for more efficient light control.

Lights arrived on time. Easy to set up.

I did my garden in all hydroponics . These lights were amazing for the price.
