PAR is Photosynthetically Active Radiation which is a measurement of light output within the photosynthetic range of 400-700nm. This range represents the area of light plants use to grow during photosynthesis. PAR is typically displayed in a colored graph from blue to red and is measured in micromoles of light per second.
PPF is a Photosynthetic Photon Flux. This is a measurement typically displayed by lighting manufacturers to show the amount of PAR that is produced by the actual lighting system.
PPFD is Photosynthetic Photon Flux Density. This is the actual amount of PAR that makes it to the plant. It, too, is measured in micromoles per second and readings are taken at the plant canopy. Multiple measurements are typically taken in various locations in and around the coverage area by the light manufacturer to display a graph or map of PPFD in the designated area.
DLI refers to the Daily Light Integral which is the amount of PAR the plant receives each day as a result of the light intensity and the duration. DLI is expressed in micromoles of light per square meter per day. It is widely accepted that for proper growth and photosynthesis levels of cannabis plants the DLI should be between 22-65 depending on the current stage of the plants life cycle.
All of these characteristics should be considered together when evaluating a new lighting system. Feel free to contact our team at [email protected] for assistance with interpreting the use of PAR. PPFD and DLI to maximize your growth potential.
