Spring Has Come!

Spring has come and a new growing season is upon us. Please remember that even though many areas of the country will experience frost killing nights still, you can always get a head start on preparing for the growing season by starting your seedlings off indoors. The best option would be any type of grow light system as these would give your seedlings a great head start.

LEDs - Future of Grow Lights?

We've gone over the benefits of LED grow light systems on this blog before but now more than ever, it seems like LED will be replacing nearly all other grow light systems within the next few years. The reasons are simple, mainly the savings on electricity and the long LED bulb life. One other reason LEDs are becoming increasingly popular is because they run cool as well. All of the aforemnetioned aspects are very important to grow lights as the typically are used for high amounts of time and in the past, created a lot of heat. We look forward to LEDs as a win-win for everyone. Should you feel like getting on board before the craze, check out our large selection of LED grow light systems.

Replace Your Bulbs

If you are like me, I have a hard time remembering when to do simple things once a year, like change the batteries in all the smoke detectors or replace grow light bulbs. I think having a day that is more easily remembered such as Daylight savings time makes it much easier to do those remedial once in a blue moon tasks. So now is a good time to replace those batteries in your smoke detector but also replace those aging grow light bulbs in your grow light systems. Even the highest quality bulbs lose their potency an effectiveness over time so don't forget to replace them to maintain your indoor garden at its optimal level.
