LED Grow Lights - The Lighting That Makes Sense

!±8± LED Grow Lights - The Lighting That Makes Sense

LED grow lights are the lights that are used to simulate sunlight for hydroponic plants. Hydroponics, which means "water working", is a way of growing plants inside the home. Hydroponic gardens take much less work than conventional gardens. They don't even need soil or sunlight. LED grow lights take the place of the sun in hydroponic systems and supply the plants with the full spectrum of light that the plants need for photosynthesis. These lights are biologically energy efficient and have a long life. By saving energy, and having no mercury pollution, they make sense for the environment. They can also be recycled.

LED grow lights have many advantages. They produce less heat than other lights. They are quiet and have very low maintenance. LED lights use less power and produce only the light that your plants need to grow. They can be used for any indoor growing method and no extra cooling method is needed. Testing reveals that plants that are exposed to LED grow lights were larger and grew quicker than plants that were exposed to another type of lighting. Because of the inspiring results of using this lighting, hydroponic growth has been revolutionized.

Hydroponic systems have been around for many centuries. Ancient cultures such as the Egyptians and Aztecs used hydroponics. The systems can range from being very simple to being more advanced technologically. A very simple system my just have a container of plants in a reservoir of nutrient solution. Other systems may use a more complex drip or irrigation system. More advanced systems spray nutrient solution on the roots. Whatever the system, the plants still need a reliable source of full spectrum light to fully mature. The LED grow lights provide all of the necessary light without any of the side effects of other types of lighting.

One of the best things about hydroponic gardening is that you have the control over the environment of your plant. In conventional gardening the sun can scorch or kill sensitive plants. This is not the case with LED grow lights. You can make sure that your plants have the perfect amount of sunlight for the quickest growth and highest yield. With the many choices of lights available, it is easy to find just the right light for your hydroponic needs. LED grow lights will be the lighting choice that makes the most sense for your plants.

The First 1000 Days: Cassini Explores The Saturn System

Google Tech Talks May 23, 2007 ABSTRACT A glistening spaceship, with seven lonely years and billions of miles behind it, glides into orbit around a ringed, softly-hued planet. A flying-saucer shaped machine descends through a hazy atmosphere and lands on the surface of an alien moon, ten times farther from the Sun than the Earth. Fantastic though they seem, these visions are not a dream. For seven years, the Cassini spacecraft and its Huygens probe traveled invisible interplanetary roads to the place we call Saturn. Their successful entry into orbit a thousand days ago, the mythic landing of Huygens on the cold, dark equatorial plains of Titan, and Cassini's subsequent explorations of the...

Phresh Filter Carbon Story

www.phreshfilter.com The Phresh Filter Carbon Story is presented by Bill Graham and Adam Tanton from Phresh Filter. Why Choose A Phresh Filter with RC-48 Carbon? • HALF THE WEIGHT • LASTS TWICE AS LONG • MOVES HIGHER CFM'S • PRICED SIMILAR TO COMPETITVE FILTERS • LARGEST SELECTION OF SIZES Demand RC-48 Activated Carbon To ensure total air filtration, there are several important factors to consider. The first and most important factor is carbon grade choice. Grade RC-48 carbon is derived from an ancient black coal deposit found only in Western Australia. The particular deposit is dated at over 250 million years old. After being extracted, the RC-48 carbon is kiln activated at 1200°C in a saturated steam atmosphere. It is this process together with the coals unique density that causes the pores in the carbon to form. This activation process makes the RC-48 carbon incredibly effective for the filtration of organic particles and other airborne materials. Because we use the purest available "activated virgin" carbon and our granulated carbon has more surface area than pelletized carbon, we can use significantly less carbon, thus making our filters half the weight of competitive filters. Other key factors that have been incorporated into Phresh Filters are a perfect combination of granulate size, carbon surface area and carbon bed depth. Installation is a breeze The world's lightest carbon filters, at less than half the weight of competitors, Phresh Filters are easier to handle ...

Plastic Greenhouse Films

!±8± Plastic Greenhouse Films

Greenhouse plastic films are specially manufactured plastics designed to withstand the penetrating ultraviolet (UV) rays of the sun, as well as wind and frigid winter temperatures.

The most common greenhouse plastic is six millimeter four year film. This plastic is fairly heavy, at six millimeters thick, and it should last for at least four years. Sometimes it will last a bit longer. It commonly is available in rolls of varying lengths and widths. The better grades will have light transmissions capable of producing excellent plant growth.

Another type of plastic film you may find is what is called "over wintering" film. This greenhouse covering is suitable for only one season's growth. Typically, commercial growers use it on greenhouses in which they are storing balled and burlaped or containerized nursery stock over the winter. The homeowner desiring this type of use for a single season may find contractor grade plastic at a home supply store useful. Since it is locally available, it may be cheaper and quicker to get. But this stuff will only last a single season, so don't use it on a permanent house, unless you want to change the plastic every year. Care must be taken to make sure it is changed, because this stuff can break down rather abruptly. Nothing can be so disheartening as to the grower who tries to stretch an extra season out of this plastic, only to have it blow away during a January snowstorm, exposing the plants within to a cold winter blast.

Plastic films are secured to wooden structural elements of the greenhouse using vinyl batten tape stapled down with three eighth inch staples. Metal strips such as those used to mount shelving on walls in the home may be used by the homeowner on a small greenhouse. It can be screwed down using drywall screws and a battery powered screw shooter. These metal strips are reusable, as are the screws and do an excellent job of holding the plastic securely.

It can pay dividends to keep some good quality clear packing tape on hand to mend tears in the plastic. There is a specially made tape for this purpose which commercial growers use, but is a bit expensive. A GOOD quality packing tape is sufficient for the home greenhouse owner.

If your greenhouse is to be heated year round, it can pay dividends to use a double layer of plastic to cover the greenhouse. A special blower available from greenhouse supplier blows air in between the plastic layers, creating an air pocket between the layers. This is excellent insulation and can cut greenhouse heating costs significantly. It does cut down on light transmission, but not enough to create a problem for your plants. Most commercial growers use this type of covering system.

Plastic covered greenhouses are an economical choice for the home gardener. The plastic used should be a good greenhouse grade which lasts a few years and provides good light transmission.

Grow Vigorous Grapes With These Trellis Systems

!±8± Grow Vigorous Grapes With These Trellis Systems

There are many choices when it comes to trellis systems with each system suited to different climates and grape varieties. All systems have the main purpose of getting the vine off the ground so the grapes get plenty of sun and they are protected from disease and rot. In winter climates growers use high trellises to keep the canopy high off the ground away from colder air that hangs close to the ground. We will describe the common trellis systems in use and explain which varieties and climates they are designed for. The other consideration in choosing a trellis system is the training system you will use for you vines.

Two Wire Trellis. This is one of the most common trellises in use today. It consists of posts 5 feet above ground level firmly anchored about 20 feet apart. A wire is strung between the posts at the top of the post and a second wire is strung 12-14 inches below the top wire. This system will adapt to most all varieties of grapes. In colder regions use posts about 2 feet longer.

Three Wire Trellis. This is a little more work, but well worth it. It uses posts installed with 6 feet above the ground. String the top wire and add two more wires 12 inches and 24 inches below the top wire. The nice thing about this system is it allows extra places to tie loose canes and allows more sun light into the canopy. This system has become the standard for new plantings in California.

Lyre or Movable Wire Trellis. The purpose of this system is to raise the new year's growth upward so grapes will hang with open air under the cluster. This system maximizes exposure to the sun and prevents rot and mildews. This system is more expensive and requires wider rows so it is not as common. This system uses a metal post shaped like a Y with the tips of the Y about 3 feet apart and 5 feet above the ground. Four wires are strung with two at the tips of the Y and two 12 inches below the top wire

Geneva Double Curtain Trellis. This is the perfect trellis for very vigorous varieties. It provides the most sunlight for all the leaves and gets the vine high to get the greatest benefit of warm air. It is shaped like a T and uses posts that are 6 feet above the ground with a 4 foot crossbar at the top of the post. It is a 3 wire system with wires strung at the end of each crossbar and one on the main post about 3 feet above the ground. As is the case with the Lyre system, this system costs more and requires wider rows.
