Hello everyone, I have a general question, how many hours of lights LEDs require plants as a minimum and at the most, greetings and thanks for answering

Hi Carnivoro

i have only been using led lights for 5 months, but find 12 hours to be fine and am experimenting with gradually increasing that. I understand some people use up to 24 hours . I grow mainly sarracenia, but have a couple of cephs in there too and they seem quite happy.

you will also have to consider the strength of your lights too, the lower the wattage, I guess the longer time will be required to give the same exposure.

Hope this helps as a starting point, there is plenty of information on the web about leds, but maybe not so much about using them for CPs.

regards

Phil
