ECO Farm YS SERIES 860W UV IR Separately Control LED Grow Light
【2 WAY SPECTRUM CONTROL】2 Way Spectrum Control with Independent Dimmers for Red&White LEDs and UV&IR LEDs. Early in VEG, you can crank up the Standard Dimmer to give you thicker stems, tighter node spacing, and bushier plants that yield better in flower. In flower, you can unleash the deep Red&UV LEDs to give you amazing flowering production, Dense buds & heavyweight yields.
【HIGH EFFICACY&UNIFORMITY】ECO Farm LED grow lights use 2264pcs top-rated brand Samsung LM301B diodes on 10 bars to provide high PAR output, increase light penetration and longer lifetime. High Energy Efficiency of 2.8 umol/J, PPFD up to 2240 umol/m2/s, to achieve maximum higher yields for full-cycle growth. Power 860W, equivalent to HPS / MH2000w grow lamp. Veg footprint is 6 x 6 ft, Flowering footprint is 5 x 5 ft.
The table below compares the specifications of the two systems.

Discussion: As you can see, RayonLED GLMF-720W FOLDABLE LED and ECO Farm YS SERIES 860W UV IR Separately Control LED share similar intensities for blue and red wavelengths. Where the difference in grow lights is most apparent is in the level of intensity for the mid-range wavelengths of around 730nm. Since the blue is most beneficial for propagation, veg and bloom phases, and red during veg and bloom, this might not make a huge difference to most growers. So, what’s the final word? Both RayonLED GLMF-720W FOLDABLE LED and ECO Farm YS SERIES 860W UV IR Separately Control LED has an optimal full spectrum of light for maximizing yields.
