To ensure your grow is successful, you should pay attention to a few key things:
Choose a suitable growbox that is lightproof and reflects light well inside.
Use modern LED lamps – they are energy-efficient and provide exactly the light spectrum your plants need.
Also, make sure you have reliable ventilation: a good exhaust system with an activated carbon filter not only supplies fresh air but also neutralizes odors.
Use high-quality substrate and well-matched fertilizer to optimally support growth.
And finally: keep an eye on temperature and humidity – a stable climate is essential for strong, healthy plants.
With these five tips, you’ll lay the foundation for a successful indoor grow.
An indoor garden requires quite a bit of planning, especially when it comes to lighting and ventilation. A complete growbox set with LED lamps makes this process much easier for you. Instead of painstakingly putting together individual components, you get the perfect solution that works optimally from the start.
Based on our own long-term experience, we recommend the 35/70w lamp from Bonsanto as well as the Sanlight LED lamp, as both have very low power consumption but can deliver high efficiency.
Anyone interested in indoor growing quickly faces the question: LED or sodium vapor lamp (NDL)? Both types of lighting have their place – but modern LED growboxes now offer a whole range of advantages that make them the first choice for many growers.
Energy Efficiency and Electricity Costs
LEDs consume significantly less electricity than sodium vapor lamps. While NDLs convert a large part of the energy into heat, LEDs direct the energy specifically into plant-effective light. This saves electricity costs in the long run – especially during continuous lighting over weeks.
Less Heat – Better Climate
Another advantage: LEDs produce much less heat. In a closed growbox, this can make all the difference. Less heat means:
Lower cooling effort
More stable climate
Reduced risk of heat stress or burns on the plants
Longer Lifespan
LEDs boast a lifespan of up to 50,000 hours. NDL bulbs, on the other hand, need to be replaced regularly to maintain consistent light output. This saves money and effort in the long term.
Full Light Spectrum for Every Phase
Modern LED grow lamps offer an adjustable or complete light spectrum that is optimally tailored to the plant’s various growth stages – from germination to flowering. NDLs usually have a limited spectrum and may require additional lighting for certain phases.
Compact Design and Easy Integration
Thanks to their compact design, LED lights can easily be integrated into almost any growbox. They are lighter, space-saving, and often modularly expandable – perfect for beginners and professionals alike.
An activated carbon filter is indispensable in indoor growing because it effectively neutralizes unpleasant odors – especially during the flowering phase of strong-smelling plants. It ensures that the exhaust air remains clean and odor-free, keeping your project discreet. At the same time, it contributes to air purification by removing fine particles and supporting a healthy climate inside the growbox. Combined with an exhaust fan, the filter provides fresh air, stable temperatures, and optimal growth conditions.
