Just as all experienced plant parents know, it is critical to create an environment in your home that imitates a plant's natural climate in order to sustain them. One core element in creating a plant friendly environment is ensuring a sufficient light source. However, this can be extremely difficult, especially if you have high light plants in a small, windowless apartment or if you'd like to incorporate some nature into your dark corners. Though natural lighting from windows can be sufficient for some plants, many plant parents will find that they need a supplemental light source to keep their plants happy.
Thankfully, small LED grow lights are an easy solution to this problem. They use targeted spectrums to mimic the growing power of the sun! It is a common misconception that all grow lights are visually unappealing and made for commercial purposes, not the home. Though this may be true for most grow lights, sleek grow lights that are compact in size and that complement beautiful interiors do exist!
As plant lovers who take pride in our homes, we wanted to create small LED grow light options that are both powerful enough to sustain any plant, but also comfortably complements a range of interior design styles. After endless research on plant and light science, and countless testing and prototyping, we created two lights that are loved by plant parents all over the world.
As the world's first luxury plant light products, all of our lights boast a high precision photosynthetic spectrum that comes in a warm and comforting white hue. With a color rendering index (CRI) of 97, both the Aspect™ and the Vita™ will bring you and your plants a supreme lighting quality that is traditionally reserved for museums and galleries. These elegant designs come in black or white, giving you the flexibility to greenfit your home to your specific needs.
Plants are able to absorb nearly all wavelengths of light, but the process is very inefficient and a waste of electricity. It was discovered that only a narrow range of blue wavelengths, between 440nm - 460nm, and red wavelengths, between 630nm - 680nm, are easily absorbed by chlorophyll and effectively used for photosynthesis. The result of this discovery led to highly efficient red/blue LED lighting to take command of the grow light industry.
This is great news for commercial growers, but nothing was created for residential use until now. We created the Aspect™ to produce wavelengths that correspond with photosynthesis yet function as interior lighting.
The Aspect™ is unique because it creates light using a balance of blue, green and red. We focused on a 1:4 ratio of blue to red light for healthy root and stem development. This ratio is critical because blue light supports root development and dense plant growth, while red light supports plant growth and flowering. An unbalanced spectrum will cause deformation, elongation, or a weak root system. We also provided enough far-red light (680+ nm) to enhance the photosynthetic efficiency of other wavelengths using a process called the Emerson effect.
You can hang the Aspect™ up by itself, or pair it with one of our accessories. For a sleek modern look, try the Italian Archetto. Or make a stylish statement with the adjustable pinocchio.
The Vita is compatible with any standard lighting fixture. You can choose your own, or view our blog post about Vita fixture recommendations for some inspiration.
