Each color is also decided by the temperature of light falling on it.
Color spectrum for led lights.
Here s a color temperature chart for reference.
The range of color temperature the three primary types of color temperature for light bulbs are.
With the latest advancements in led technology you have more control over your yields than ever before.
At least in terms of your plants perception.
Spectrum 360 led lights are available in either fixed color or multi color options.
A color spectrum is a graphical display of each of the colors in the light.
The answer is relatively simple when you understand the basics of how the color of light is characterized.
The lower color temperatures before 3000k on the color temperature chart represent warm lights which appear more orange red like a fire light at the 2700k and became less yellow gold from 3000k to 3500k.
Maybe you see a color as black in warmer light but it turns into navy blue when it is in cooler light.
The fixed colors are white blue or green the multi color options which provides an almost limitless variety of color possibilities and a vast array of preprogrammed scroll and flash modes.
Another way to think of the color temperature is how warm or cool is the white led light bulb.
Soft white 2700k 3000k bright white cool white 3500k 4100k and daylight 5000k 6500k.
For the sake of keeping the topic to led lighting only the colors that are typically used in led lighting will be discussed.

Led color temperature measures the color of a led light bulb.
Color spectrum of sunlight image from yuji led.
To make it more clear the color temperature of candlelight is about 2000k and halogen lights are around 2800k.
Variable spectrum led lights like the california lightworks solarsystem allow you to mimic the light spectrum of the sun and command the changing seasons.
For example a red phosphor will convert blue light energy and re emit red wavelength energy.
So a red might have a wavelength of 630 or 660.
Light color or color temperature is measured using the kelvin scale.
We get asked the difference between the different white led color temperatures all the time.
Scientists use wavelength numbers to refer to the colors instead of color names which is a much more accurate way to measure the color.
It s an exciting time to be a commercial grower.
The higher the degrees kelvin the whiter the color temperature.
What shape led should i choose.
Phosphors convert light energy of one wavelength and redistribute that energy as a different wavelength.
Leds are available in warm colors low k to match the yellowish light of incandescent bulbs but you can also choose cooler colors high k with whiter or bluer light.
It defines the amount of pure white yellow red and blue color in a light.
