My plant nursery is thriving now

After three weeks, I’ve already seen new growth on my spotted begonia, ric rac cactus, Nepenthes pitcher plants, and string of pearls. I couldn't find any info on a thorough comparison so I hope this review helps others. I was initially undecided between the 36W and 24W lights for my plant poles, which hold various jungle plants, including my Nepenthes collection. To compare them, I installed one of each on separate poles. In the end, I found the 36W light too bright for creating the calm, inviting atmosphere I want in my living room, so I chose the 24W. IF it turns out not to provide enough light, I can always add a second 24W further down the track, however so far I have new leaf production. FYI Within a week under the 36W light, my Nepenthes Miranda had one leaf turn dark red, which suggested that the light may have been just a little too intense/close...however other nepenthes species may prefer this light. Regardless I don't mind sacrificing optimal growth for nicer lighting in my house. At the moment, my plants sit approximately 30 cm, 45 cm and 50 cm from the light source. It’s still too early to tell whether the 24W light will be sufficient to encourage pitcher production. My plants have only recently been purchased, and Nepenthes dislike sudden changes in their environment. In addition, Sydney winters are quite cool, with temperatures in my home around 15°C, which is not ideal for pitcher production. I run the lights for 12 hours a day using a Tapo timer. Based on electricity estimates in Australia, a 24W bulb costs around $45 per year to run, while the 36W costs about $65 per year. For me, that’s a small price to pay for keeping plants in a home that receives no natural light. To reduce glare in the living room, I made a simple half of a lampshade by making a wire frame covered with paper. It sits away and around the side of light that I can see - and is not close or against the light, allowing air to circulate so the bulb can cool properly. There’s no need to overcomplicate it, just make sure that any cover doesn’t block the ventilation openings or sit too close to the bulb. If the light overheats, it can shorten the lifespan of the globe.

I bought two SANSI 24‑LED Grow Lights on 11 May 2024. Last month, both of them stopped working—one after the other. One unit has two visibly burned LEDs, and the other has one LED that is barely visible. This seems to be the main reason both lights failed completely. Unfortunately, I have no idea how to claim warranty, repair, or replacement since SANSI does not appear to have any service agency in Saudi Arabia. Very disappointing experience considering the short life span of the product.

Ik heb hem nu bijna een jaar en de planten zijn ontzettend blij onder de lamp! De lamp is best fel in huis, daar moest ik wel aan wennen. Ik heb hem op een timer staan (los bij gekocht) voor 9 uur per dag.
