Broad-spectrum LED light has been shown to produce 40-60% higher THC concentration, 25-50% higher CBD concentration, 10-35% higher THCV concentration, 100-200% higher CBG concentration, and 15-30% greater total cannabinoid yield compared to HPS. The VERTICA Bullet Light for propagation has the most complete McCree curve coverage at the least power of any commercial LED light.
Red light is the primary and most effective set of wavelengths that drive plants biomass accumulation, but it is not the only wavelength that does so. Red light alone does not provide the proper stimulation for healthy root and stem growth. Too much red light also creates poor work conditions where it is harder to spot mold and discoloration that indicate unhealthy plants. Missing these early warning signs can doom your crop.

The second most effective set of wavelengths but must be balanced with red and green light. Blue light regulates morphological responses such as shoot and internode elongation, shoot dry matter, and leaf area. The right amount is needed to ensure that your plants don’t produce too much unprofitable biomass.

Green light is thought to be the least effective band of wavelengths, but a spectrum that includes some green light is more effective than one consisting of red and blue light alone. The McCree curve is the standard evaluation tool for whether a light has the proper power spectrum to efficiently and successfully grow Cannabis, and it naturally includes a certain amount of green light.

A combination of all wavelengths of light from Red to Green to Blue which carries all of the benefits of each. This is the type of light under which all plants on earth have evolved to thrive.
Although a fixture designed with pure red, blue, and green LEDs will create what appears to be white light to the human eye, this is an illusion. Such products will only emit in very narrow red, blue, and green portions of the spectrum and do not provide the broader coverage that makes up true white light.
A white LED, on the other hand, has an emission spectrum much closer to true white light. A white LED is a blue LED with a specialized phosphor coating that turns blue light into a broad range of wavelengths much closer to the spectrum of true white light.
Aside from the benefits white light provides to your plants, it is also user-friendly. White light is much easier to see in which allows growers to easily monitor plant health at a glance and spot potential problems early. Who doesn’t prefer a grow room that they can see in?
