Light intensity is only one of three key components which ensure proper growth. Soil condition along with the proper amount and frequency of watering round out the other two components. You should learn about your plant’s growth cycle to maximize growth and reduce challenges along the way. By doing so, you can select the proper model and light spectrum combination to provide sufficient lighting. We suggest regular inspections to confirm that plants are on the correct growth track.

This grow light can be powered by a USB port or plugged into a standard outlet. An adapter is included for added convenience. It has four light heads, and four flexible gooseneck arms that can be adjusted by degrees. Thanks to a sturdy mounting clip, it can be attached to any surface up to inches thick, allowing for versatile placement. The only downsides are that the light tends to stop working within months, and it&#;s unclear if the company provides a warranty. However, at this price point, a replacement isn&#;t too expensive.

While this is one of the most expensive options on our list, we think it&#;s worth it if you want a self-sufficient way of growing herbs and vegetables. Keep in mind that you do need to purchase special pods and plant food. However, AeroGarden does provide many different types of pods and plant food for purchase. Also, this is one of AeroGarden&#;s largest systems, so while it does hold up to nine plants, you may want to make sure you have the right amount of space for it. While we found that it doesn&#;t make a lot of noise, the light could be a little distracting if you are in a small space trying to work or watch TV while it is on.
