This is by far the best,visually and information wise, light video I've ever seen! So much info and your plant room is inspirational 🙌 💚 Thanks so much for your hard work!
The PPFD that these companies list really doesn't mean anything because this all changes depending on how far the plant is from the light source. I really liked the fact that you started off using a light meter to compare the FC of similar lights, but why did you stop doing that?
it's micro-mol. not u-mol. the greek letter is miu. Micromole μmol/s (micromole) is the unit in which P.A.R. is expressed. This unit indicates how many micromoles per second a light source emits. μmol/s is one-millionth of a mol (10−6 mol).
You have a very beautiful plant area! I have been watching a lot of videos about grow lights, and most don't seem to be concerned with how ugly a lot of them are. Your's look very tasteful!
Can you please please do a video on your soil mix? Your plant tour video popped up in my feed and I loved it. But want to know about the soil mix you use AND your plant pots. The plastic trellis, grow thickly moss poles, and the trellis that was in your Philodendron Ghost terracotta pot. Please do videos on these.
I knew I should have looked up videos before buying them. I bought some grow lights on amazon but its about the size of say a desk light because I only need a small one for my succulent. It was only $14, so now looking at your lights. Is it possible it might just be a desk light and I shouldn’t rely on it? It is describe on amazon as a grow light though.
Hanie, super job on your lighting video. One of the most comprehensive with all the information we need for an intelligent decision. Is that a Sinningia leucotricha next to you Phyllanthus mirabilis? If it is I have recently added two to my collection. I like the above ground tuber with the fuzzy silver leaves and its hallmark salmon tubular flowers. A truly unique plant for those of us that like the unusual!
Thanks so much Peter, I’m glad you enjoyed it! 😊 It is a Sinningia! It’s a bit dormant right now (stopped growing months ago) but hopefully it’ll wake up again soon 😍
So the mother light isn’t as warm as the Soltech light? I was thinking about doing some overhead lighting in my room and the mother strip would be great but I don’t want a super cool color. Soltech is so nice. It’s like the perfect lighting in my place.
So helpful Hanie, thank you for this video. I think my next lights will now be Rousseau. I have the Soltech's, which I love but I like the colour temperature of the Rousseau more.
Wow, sounds like you have a challenge growing topicals up there in Canada. It's hard enough for us in Missouri with only 5 months of bad winter weather to deal with. But all that said, I love having the tropicals inside in brightly lite rooms during the dark winter months. Very calming and relaxing. Thanks for sharing your setup!
Just love this VD so stunning and everything and you have no furniture unless this is a different part of the house ha ha thank you for this video. This is my come to video beside charmaine to just relax and enjoy and fantasize and take notes🤓I live in New York City. My name is charmaine also again happy plan day.💚💚💚💚🤩🤗
Being now darker nights in the U.K. now I purchased two Garpsen LED Plant Grow Light, Full Spectrum Grow Lights for Indoor Plants, 315 LEDs . This is my first year I started buying real plants 🪴 and these are my first ever grow lights. I also ordered two sets, had them on last night & WOW the amount of light coming out is excellent.
Hello, awesome video, I have a quick question, do you recommend having a closed glass shelf for the plants especially if you are growing veggies and fruits? Thank you for time
You totally can! I had that one before as well and it was effective but visually too cool-toned and harsh for my liking. Just personal preferences though, and that's a great budget bulb if that's what you're after! 💚
@@soleilrium Hmm, mine have never been cool-toned. It all depends on the 'Kelvin'. Yeah I wouldn't like blue tone either. Mine have always been a beautiful white.
Even white light can be warm toned or cool toned (just like the growlights I showed in my video)! :). It’s just that I personally prefer a warmer tone (3-4000 Kelvins) for my indoor ambiance as I find it cozier and less harsh on my eyes.
Really useful, thank you! I'm in North West UK and light is an absolute nightmare here for 6 months too. Just bought the 36w Sansi and I've been looking at the Aspect, I'll have to invest soon. Your cats and apartment are beautiful too!
@@soleilrium But from the number of Soltech lights you have vs others - you must somewhat prefer them more in your space 🤔 Great round up of all these brands with their ppfd values
I just got a bunch of them last year before I really found out about the others! I just ordered another Rousseau too :) Thanks Anita, I know this video is a bit dry hahahaha I struggled with it a bit but the next one will be more interesting I think!

Aw thank you so much, that means so much to me!! Thank you so much for watching, comments like this keep me going🥹🥰🥰
Honestly!
I'm so amazed on how you organized your plants😭
Soltech’s Black Friday deals are definitely worth waiting for 😉 I have yet to buy them though but the 2 pack bundle was $200 USD
Omggg another vlogg😍✨💕
🥹🥹 Thanks for watching!
Please make more videos! I love your aesthetic, plants, windows, and cats!
Thank you so much! I will!
Good video, but as a vet tech there are a few plants that can make the cat sick if she nibbles. Please research dear
Hi, I am 100% aware of that but none of my cats nibble on any plants. :) Thank you for the concern!
Buy a 30$ sansei 36w bulb and your own fixture . A lot of these are sooooo overpriced just for looks

In love with your setup! Whered you get rhat cay hammock? Need one for my kitty
Wow!! What is that philodendron with the new red leaf?
Beautiful and very informative. thank you
Great info thanks! I appreciate the excellent recommendations.
Thanks for watching!💚
How many days does it take you to water ur plets
How did you angle the the hanging pendant light? Please help
OMG Out. Of. Hand. I'm obsessed.

Hopefully if it’s described as a growlight then it is one! Normal lights work for plants as well but just not as efficiently :)

That’s right, Soltech is the warmest! The Mother light isn’t super cool though, it is just a neutral white :)
Are you getting the new mother light?
I really want to but can’t justify it right now as I have so many grow lights :(
So helpful Hanie, thank you for this video. I think my next lights will now be Rousseau. I have the Soltech's, which I love but I like the colour temperature of the Rousseau more.
You’re so welcome!! I love the Rousseau lights too, I just ordered another myself🥰
What light meter do you use, please?
do you start your growlight at day? not night?
They start in the morning and turn off at night :)
Plant Tour plz
Hi! I already have one up :)
Your cat must be a frickin saint. I can’t have a SINGLE indoor plant.
Wow, sounds like you have a challenge growing topicals up there in Canada. It's hard enough for us in Missouri with only 5 months of bad winter weather to deal with. But all that said, I love having the tropicals inside in brightly lite rooms during the dark winter months. Very calming and relaxing. Thanks for sharing your setup!
Do you have any advice for keeping cats from eating your plants?
Any idea of how expensive it’s to power all these indoor grow lights? There is a device called KillAWatt that can measure it.
That Soltech literally just looks like the bulbs with a large pvc pipe surrounding it... Good to know I can save $200 on that one haha
Just love this VD so stunning and everything and you have no furniture unless this is a different part of the house ha ha thank you for this video. This is my come to video beside charmaine to just relax and enjoy and fantasize and take notes🤓I live in New York City. My name is charmaine also again happy plan day.💚💚💚💚🤩🤗
hi, at @6:32 what's the name of that plant growing on the moss pole and next to the red leaf? I have a similar one, but dont know the ID/name. thanks.
What would an affordable warm light for lights? 😭
What is the foot candles for the mother light at a meter away?
I think your room is beautiful, but I hope you wear eye protection if you are in there often. Thank you for the video.
Wow! I love your set up. You have gorgeous plants.
Thank you so much❤️❤️
I'm glad I live in Central Florida and sunshine all year long.
What were those white looking plants growing in the dome? Looked interesting.
Excellent video! Thank you!❤

Hello, i probably never get a reply but 6:31 is that Esmeraldense with red leaf ? Thanks a lot.
It is! :)
You have beautiful plants and cats 💕
this is very very beautiful..😍
Absolutely stunning!
Thank you 😍😍
Love it❤
Hello, awesome video, I have a quick question, do you recommend having a closed glass shelf for the plants especially if you are growing veggies and fruits?
Thank you for time
Hi! I wouldn’t recommend it for veggies and fruits because they will quickly outgrow it!
@@soleilrium thank you. My apartment gets dusty and I wanted to grow some peppers and thought the glass cabinet would be beneficial
Nice.
Beautiful
Love this video and from my home city! ❤ I can’t wait for more videos
More to come! Thank you for watching 💚💚
Is growing plants in Canada easy?
Depends on where in Canada! Where I live it gets really dry and dark and cold so not super ideal🥲
Wow, that is way too much money to spend on bulbs! You can get GE Full Spectrum LED bulbs for super cheap compared to those!
You totally can! I had that one before as well and it was effective but visually too cool-toned and harsh for my liking. Just personal preferences though, and that's a great budget bulb if that's what you're after! 💚
@@soleilrium Hmm, mine have never been cool-toned. It all depends on the 'Kelvin'. Yeah I wouldn't like blue tone either. Mine have always been a beautiful white.

wish you took measurements with a par meter not footcandles
