I have these lights. I also got a WiFi outlet for them that allows me to set the timer for sunrise to sunset. Great in the winter when plants need less sun 🙂
I have simply replaced all of the lights in my room with GE grow lights 😊 I have 2 pendants and 2 wall lights, and my plants are all very happy, as long as I run the AC to keep my room below 90 lol. They are all over my walls, and a large plant shelf, and also my desk. And my dresser. And the floor. I live in a jungle, and it's glorious
If you want some cheap but fairly heavy duty lights I recommend led shop lights. You can get one that's 5000 lumens for under $25 at harbor freight and they last forever. You can get them at higher lumens too and as long as they're led they don't give off too much heat. Not necessary for every setup but they're great for plants that need a lot of light, especailly if you're worried about the sun burning them. And they usually give off a full spectrum light (just check, the description will usually tell you) so no need to get the more expencive grow bulbs
You should do a lights video were you show all your lights and talk about them then choose the one that you think is best for beginners and which lights you think are just great over all and all that jazz…… cuz I’d like to know my self😅
I love the fact that you have your Lego Botanical sets ontop of your plant shelves! Also your videos are awesome; they remind me of myself while I am working with the couple plants I have.
Can't hear or see Vittsjö now without hearing Valhalleluja by Nanowar... It's a great, funny metal/gospel masterpiece of IKEA adoration. As a swede it was especiallynpoignant.
Ether I’m too dumb or I’m not on the right app but I can’t ever find links to store fronts, bios, or other things I see in RUclips shorts. I’m very interested in the lights but I can’t find them….*sad body.

I use the Amazon Barrina T5 LED 4ft . Grow lights $50 on 2tf 6pc . The regular non grow LEDs T5 ~ 4ft 10-12pc $60 are more for ur bucks💵 & they work better than the grow light.
Wish I saw this 6 months ago. After getting some LED lights from Amazon that only lasted 6 weeks I got new ones. I got two Mars Hydro lights. When you walk in the room it’s like walking on the surface of the sun. They are so freaking bright sunglasses help. Turns out people grow their weed with them. 😂 Succulents seem happy but humans are blinded lol
right... its totally the beige wall and what looks like a white shelf, that makes the Blurple LEDs look pink... which is why the other shelf light and spotlight, both look like completely normal 3000k warm-white or whatever its called ...
It depends on a lot of factors, but the plants themselves will usually show signs of needing more light. Variegated plants need more light to keep their variegation, for example. If the plant isn’t growing well, it might need more light. If the plant is getting leggy, meaning the stem is longer and it doesn’t have as many leaves at it should, it needs more light. I only have north facing windows because I live somewhere extra hot and I’ve curtained off my windows facing other directions to save energy, so my plants are all gathered around the north facing windows and still need extra lights because that’s not really enough.
Hi Krystal! I would love to know if there's a trick to where plants should be placed in relation to grow lights. E.g. what is the equivalent of direct and indirect light with grow lights, how close under the light source should plants be, and so on. Please assume for this hypothetical (if you want to answer) that there's no available natural light lol. Thanks for sharing your knowledge, no worries if you don't get to this question!!
All grow lights provide indirect light. Direct light is essentially the sun. Most LEDs run cool so there isn't a risk of burning leaves like would happed if you put an indirect light plant right under the outdoor sun. Even direct light plants can do well under grow lights if the lumens are high enough. Most grow bulbs will have instructions for how close to put them to a plant. I bought a lamp socket size grow bulb called the Sansi for 16 bucks off Amazon, which has kind of a narrow beam so I had to put it up higher to make room for all my plants to have light. I would recommend the larger size of the Sansi or just multiple of the 16 dollar version if you've got more than a couple plants.
If they're small they should do well on a window ledge/countertop near a window. If you're looking for a grow light that can fit in a lamp socket I've got a Sansi growlight that was only $16 on Amazon. Once a week to once every two weeks for watering is fine for most succulents.
I wonder, what are you using to keep that clamp light stuck to the wall? Those are the type of sockets I use for my grow bulbs, but I have them clamped to bookshelves. It would be neat if I could also mount them on the wall somehow.
I got a grow light yesterday from Amazon and when I set it up and after I started it was blue then i pressed a button on it then it was red, again I pressed it was combination of both It ok for my plant's?
Hi there for Alocasia, Calathea and Philodendrons, what colour LED Works Best?? Was going to Buy white with pale yellow but lot of research saying blue and Red is the most used on the spectrum. Since Temu Lacks in white, pale yellow lights. Thank you if you help Cheers
what's the difference between a grow light and led light? i have one that i dont use, that may work for my plants, but i'm just not sure. also, do you have to let them on always, or just during the daytime to simulate the sun.
How did you mount the lights onto your shelf? It looks like you used zip ties on a solid shelf without wires and I kinda wanna mimic your set up. Thank you!
Maybe this is a dumb question but will plants grow just as well under a purple/Violet light ????? I use it for my reptiles but I also want to grow plants inside the terrarium probably just pothos or a snake plant
In my experience, succulent type plants grow much better in purple/violet lights. For tropical plants, full spectrum (the white ones) will be a better choice.
If you want the non-pink ones, get the yellow! The white ones look pink no matter the wall colour unfortunately. I bought the white ones in 2020 since all the photos showed actual white, wish I got the yellow.
EVERYONE STOP WHAT YOU ARE DOING!!! Did you guys spot the *super cute* LEGO flowers at the top of the shelf? 😍😍😍 p.s I have a LEGO orchid that my bf got me for Valentine's day...I am going to marry him one day ❤

Thanks for posting the link! Just purchased a few items listed in your store. ❤️
Thank you ❤

just curious but doesn't that mean you are exposing yourself to UV radiation all the time?
@@LML1415 there’s very little if any
@@LML1415 in some countries this can be more expensive 😅 like we can't have a UV lamp cuz it uses more electricity
U'll have a much better sun tan year round, don't forget to wear sunscreen 🧴 to bed, lol 😜

Bought 2 sets of 4 and have them plugged into kasa wifi smart plugs to run on a schedule. Such a great recommendation thank you Krystal!
You got EXACTLY THIS LIGHT???? Please send me a private message or something I am desperate to get esta fly the lights from this video 😩😩😩😩
You should do a lights video were you show all your lights and talk about them then choose the one that you think is best for beginners and which lights you think are just great over all and all that jazz…… cuz I’d like to know my self😅
When my gate way plant was Marijuana so now I have a ton of extra grow lights growing tomatoes.....
I've got those barrina lights as well! They're a great frugal option, especially for houseplants
I love the fact that you have your Lego Botanical sets ontop of your plant shelves!
Also your videos are awesome; they remind me of myself while I am working with the couple plants I have.

Awesome! Now I know what to buy for mom. Thank you 😶
I love your booty planter! I have a larger nude one with my lithops growing in it! 😂 It gets me every time!
I love those lights!!! I use them for my orchids ✨

Do you ever do live shows where people can ask you questions or have you considered doing that?
I agree, they're so amazingggg

Pinned it now 💚
right... its totally the beige wall and what looks like a white shelf, that makes the Blurple LEDs look pink...

Yeah the Barrina lights come in pink, yellow, and white (the ad description doesn't say white). I think Krystal has the pink lights.
I wonder what those run you in monthly electricity. 🤔🤔🤔
Im wondering too. ☺️
Shop at your local garden store too!
I been using barrina for years now and I love them. Not their grow lights, the 2ft t8 6500k tube led lights. I have 24 of them in total.
Dang it I need these 😭
I use a spider farmer g4500 at 40-60% intensity. But I grow cacti.
What do you do about little black bugs that turn into flies? Any tips to get rid of them?
❤❤❤❤ PLEASE:: WHAT TYPE OF WATER 💦🌊 DO I USE FOR INDOOR PLANTS
How do you decide which plants need lights as opposed to lower light or natural light
Research! If your plant needs more than several hours of light a day or needs to reach a certain DLI you're most likely gonna wanna get light.
It depends on a lot of factors, but the plants themselves will usually show signs of needing more light. Variegated plants need more light to keep their variegation, for example. If the plant isn’t growing well, it might need more light. If the plant is getting leggy, meaning the stem is longer and it doesn’t have as many leaves at it should, it needs more light. I only have north facing windows because I live somewhere extra hot and I’ve curtained off my windows facing other directions to save energy, so my plants are all gathered around the north facing windows and still need extra lights because that’s not really enough.
I really need a bedside grow lamp 😭

@@aureasmortem thanks for the info!!
How much more energy would this take up? As in how much more is the power bill gonna be keeping it on that long? 😅
My question also!
most grow lights are LEDS so are energy efficient and shouldn't raise costs much
People say Amazon like it's a store. It's not. It's a market. With a ton of stores/sellers. Look at what you're buying carefully lmao
How high above your plants are your lights?
I bought the same lights recently.
Hi I have just recently got some succulents and I was wondering what the best light and watering situation would be for my plants
If they're small they should do well on a window ledge/countertop near a window. If you're looking for a grow light that can fit in a lamp socket I've got a Sansi growlight that was only $16 on Amazon. Once a week to once every two weeks for watering is fine for most succulents.
Hi hun, I’m using UV grow lights purple/blue are they good for my succulents eg jades??
Krystal, hweeeelp, are these enough for succulents? Is winter and sun is nowhere it used to be, I'm worried 😭😭😭
There are lots of cheap grow lights available, any of them would be good
Do they drive up your electric bill?
Link is on her tictak account yall!!
I have it pinned now 💚
Me either that’s why I call it tictak to p off my kids lol
I wonder, what are you using to keep that clamp light stuck to the wall? Those are the type of sockets I use for my grow bulbs, but I have them clamped to bookshelves. It would be neat if I could also mount them on the wall somehow.
so at night you turn it off? complete darkness??
I got a grow light yesterday from Amazon and when I set it up and after I started it was blue then i pressed a button on it then it was red, again I pressed it was combination of both
It ok for my plant's?
Why are the lights sticking out? I have same set up but put them diagonally
I can't click links please can you tell us what they're called please? ☹️
The Amazon work great btw
Do they cost a lot to power?

How to you determine if a plant needs assistance from a grow light? I have succulents under mine but any other species to consider?
Hi, will these lights be okay for draceana marginata?
Maybe this is a dumb question but will plants grow just as well under a purple/Violet light ????? I use it for my reptiles but I also want to grow plants inside the terrarium probably just pothos or a snake plant
In my experience, succulent type plants grow much better in purple/violet lights. For tropical plants, full spectrum (the white ones) will be a better choice.
Why do you choose to only have your plants with only 8 hours of light?
They need to rest too. ☺️
What’s the thing that’s a timer called
Dang that's cool
Do they emit UVA/UVB ?
No
Can you put grow lights in a north facing window, like double light? Is that a stupid question 😅
This is not a stupid question. I have killed Willow trees before when I left the grow light on them
What kind of plants would you grow under these lights?
Vittsjo shelf ikea
How about wireless????
Do they have the 4 foot lights?
Will a t5 repisun ubv work?
If you want the non-pink ones, get the yellow! The white ones look pink no matter the wall colour unfortunately. I bought the white ones in 2020 since all the photos showed actual white, wish I got the yellow.
Can you show the link pleaseee
I don’t know if it just this brand or not. But if you look for white color- look for lights with over 4000k (higher kelvin = cooler light)
What’s the color of your wall
HEY!!!! You stole my timer! Come on!😊
EVERYONE STOP WHAT YOU ARE DOING!!! Did you guys spot the *super cute* LEGO flowers at the top of the shelf? 😍😍😍

Why do ppl use purple lights? (And by ppl I mean me)
What plants would you put under a grow light?
Noooo I just bought different grow lights yesterday
T8s are better
Do you have a husband or bf?
Stop buying amazon garbage
Fun fact: magenta is the most plant friendly grow light color. That's why most grow lights come off pink! 🩷
Worst light you can buy. Grow up
