The colour of these lamps is mainly red, with orange, red and yellow tones that stand out, producing certain effects on plants such as: production of more flower buds, massive flowering, flower fattening, etc.
This is a bulb with a very long useful life (approximately 4 years), with very good maintenance of the luminous flux.
It has an ideal luminous efficiency, in addition to representing an energy saving of 50% since it replaces mercury lamps that are less efficient.
When should I change the sodium lamp?
We recommend changing the lamp when the value of the loss of production is greater than the value of a new lamp, that is, about 50 euros (in the case of a 600W lamp).
Professional nurserymen and indoor growers change the lamp for each crop.
