IR cameras and ligth

StrangeTomatosstarted grow question 2 years ago

Are IR cameras dangerous for the night cycle? I have my plants on streaming and I'm thinking of placing an infrared camera and IR LED I'm worried that the IR light can stress the plants and interrupt the night cycle. Wave you experience this with security cameras?

No, they aren't. The IR wavelengths from cameras aren’t strong enough to create any effect. The camera doesn’t produce strong infrared wavelengths like the sun, or infrared grow lights. Good luck on your grow.

My cameras are for security reasons. If it is photoperiod plants it can disrupt their cycle if bright enough. Autos it don't matter.

Is there a difference between µmol 2,7 and 2,8 when it comes to yield? Is the FC4800 worth the extra money? Doesn't cost much more

Does my LED need more red spectrum for flowerin?I have an HLG 100v2 LED grow light at 4000K. They say 3000K is better for flowering. Does it make any sense for me to add some cheap red LED strips to add red spectrum? I’d rather not buy another more expensive light if I can just supplement this one. See picture.
