FAQ About Indoor Plant Livelihood with Artificial Light

What types of artificial lights are best for indoor plants?
The most effective artificial lights for indoor plants are LED grow lights, fluorescent lights, and HID lights. LED grow lights are energy-efficient and can be tailored to provide a spectrum of light that plants need. Fluorescent lights, especially CFLs (compact fluorescent lights), are also cost-effective and provide a good range of light intensities. HID lights such as Metal Halide and High-Pressure Sodium provide a powerful intensity but are less commonly used due to higher energy consumption.
