I used the self adhesive that came with the screen, but I'd definitely recommend sewing the border and velcro on if you have the means and the talent. Pulling the screen on and off weakens the adhesive for sure. The lights don't make much heat. They are also on a timer that I inherited so I don't have a link for that. But my plants really like it! I have an echeveria lola that has stress colors and lithops on the top shelf propped to be closer that I think are doing fine. They are starting to split on their own which I'm super excited about. My PVN also gets a very dark purple when it was on the middle shelf during the last couple hurricanes that hit the east coast.

​

My railing planter was just moved to the bottom shelf for the cold evenings but seeing as I have echeveria and cacti that are doing well under these lights already I'm not too worried.

They do. I’ve got two different kinds of lights, making it pretty full spectrum.

The one I have I got from Amazon
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B074Y32PFZ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_BX9NDbKEQ92X1

It's around 40usd, but it has 4 light strips so it covers a lot of space :)

Got them on amazon a few months ago. They’ve been great for low maintenance houseplants with consistent light schedules.
They look fine and are easy to stick to surfaces.
They’re relatively cheap and LED low energy cost.

u/katyvo · 3 pointsr/succulents

I got these. My Perle von Nurnberg hasn't etiolated and my Black Knight is still black. My cacti (in the bottom left corner, with a dedicated light bar) still have their color too.

Edit: I use my PvN (Phaedra, my first leafy beastie) as my light gauge. If she puts up with the light she's getting, everyone else will survive. It's useful to have That One Plant around if you're concerned about lighting.

u/raelovesplants · 3 pointsr/TakeaPlantLeaveaPlant

I just got these after someone else on reddit linked that that was what they had. They came with screws, zip ties, and 3m stickies. I like them so far; but the purple light messes with my head.

u/TigerWoods420 · 2 pointsr/succulents

I got mine from Amazon. Link attached here below. I have heard that the LED lights are not as powerful as their Florescent counterparts but these work well for my set-up!

I use these grow lights from Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B074Y32PFZ/ref=oh_aui_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1


For $43 you get a total of 64" of light bar. And the LED lights have a spectrum specifically for growing vegetables/herbs.

u/cheesecubez · 2 pointsr/succulents

At around that price (maybe a little more) I really like these.

They don’t put out a ton of heat, which is good because you really want your plants pretty close to them. I have six sets and they work pretty well. Good luck!

Out of stock now, but it's just a cheap kit that let me be pretty flexible with how things are set up. Only $40 at the time of purchase. I zip-tied them to the underside of a dish rack.

u/Claudius-Artanis · 2 pointsr/houseplants

Hey!

I’m using these off amazon: Grow Light Strip Kit 45W Including Power Supply, 4 pcs 16 Inches LED Grow Light Strips with Extension Cables, Mounting Accessories for Greenhouse,Grow Shelf; Easy Installation-(4-Strip-Kit) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B074Y32PFZ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_R-0NDbJ9D6XZB

They’re awesome totally recommend them. You can break them up since they come in 4 pieces and you connect them view cables, I have them on a timer.

I was able to rig them up under that three tiered stand with zip ties. The lights don’t get too hot and my orchids have been loving them.

u/Erebosio · 1 pointr/succulents

Hi, I used to use these off of Amazon for my plants. They're not enough to support growth on their own, and some plants needed to be raised closer to them than others to not get etiolated. I used them for my plants in a high-light, south-facing window and together they kept plants pretty content.

u/WolverineDDS · 1 pointr/gardening

Also when you say more light how can I tell if my lights aren't bright enough? I turn them on when I get up and turn them off when I go to bed but when I first started them I was only doing about 10-12 hours a day.

I bought these cheap lights on Amazon so maybe they just aren't bright enough.

u/demosthenesss · 1 pointr/gardening

How high above my seedlings should LED lights be? All the guidance I see online is for lighting that is massively more powerful than these. I have these grow lights which are about 20W worth of light per level.



Here are some of the plants and setup: https://imgur.com/a/YZKuB

Is it worth moving the lights even closer? What about getting more light (20W seems like a small amount to me).

u/slothurknee · 1 pointr/succulents

these from amazon. they work pretty good IMO. I’ve had them since September and my plants love them! Another Redditor recommended them on this sub.

u/ihaveaquestion2013 · 1 pointr/succulents

I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post such a basic question, so I'll ask here.

​

What kind of grow lights should I get? I'm about to purchase a 5-tier shelf to hold all of my succulents for winter, but I'm new to this and have never used grow lights before. Browsing through this sub I've found these two are mentioned a lot? Here's one and here's another. Which one should I get? Should I put all the lights up top and let them shine down or should I put one on each shelf?

u/Trixxyz · 1 pointr/druggardening

If I started it indoors after I transfer it outside would it grow again? I’ve heard of people growing them indoors, taking them out in spring/summer and bring them in during fall/winter

Would this work for the beginning?

If you live north of the Mason Dixie Line these grow lights are bright enough to activate a solar powered bubble head. I've only had them a few weeks. My schedule is: run them during they day (~8hrs) and give the plants enough dark time to rest. I started off with only and hour or two at first, Bc my plants were close to the lights so I was testing for negative effects.

u/SplAgentLundy23 · 1 pointr/houseplants

I got this shelf and these lights. I used the zip ties to attach them to the shelves, and put the top one on the ceiling above the shelf with the sticky pads, it also comes with screws.

u/fisch09 · 1 pointr/hydro

One thing I am having a problem with Light selection is I am pretty clueless about all things electrical, and get a tad overwhelmed at the idea of wiring. I look at Amazon listings and really just have no idea how to make heads or tails of whether things like this or other products are of reliable quality. Do you know of any resources where I can learn more about what to keep in mind when looking at lights?
