Why 385nm UVA?
How This Compares:
- Standard UV lights: 395–405nm (visible violet)
- FGI: true 385nm UVA
- Standard: blended spectrum
- FGI: single-band precision
- Standard: IP65 or lower
- FGI: IP68 fully sealed
Why UVA (385nm) Matters
Plant morphology is influenced by spectral composition. While PAR lighting drives growth, UVA wavelengths (around 380–400nm) play a role in plant signaling, structure, and secondary metabolite expression.
Unlike broad-spectrum fixtures, this unit allows growers to:
-
Introduce controlled UV exposure
- Fine-tune lighting strategies
- Experiment with spectrum-specific responses
Extended PAR (E-PAR) Context
Recent research, including work from Utah State University, has expanded the understanding of usable light for plants beyond traditional PAR (400–700nm).
-
E-PAR Range: ~380–740nm
-
UVA sits at the edge of biologically active light
-
Supplemental UVA helps bridge the gap between artificial lighting and natural sunlight
Natural sunlight includes measurable UVA energy (~380nm), which is typically missing from standard LED grow lights.
Applications
- Commercial indoor cultivation (CEA)
- Supplemental UV for flowering and morphology control
- Coral fluorescence and reef systems
- Mycology environments
- Research and controlled trials
