Spider Farmer SE 7000 Review

The Spider Farmer SE 7000 differs from flat board style grow lights in a few ways. The bar design distributes light more evenly across the canopy and allows heat to dissipate off the grow lights better because there is more room for airflow around the LEDs. You will also notice that the side bars are closer together than they are to the center bars. This design promotes consistent light intensity, even on the sides of your grow tent.

Coming with 3330pcs Samsung LM301B & Osram 660nm Diodes, the output and efficiency of the SE 7000 grow lights operate at 650 watts with an output of 1780 µmol s-1 and efficacy of 2.75µmol s-1 per watt. The upgraded 3-channel spectrum includes 2800-3000K warm white light, 4800-5000K blue light, and 650-665nm Osram red light. These lights require less energy than HPS (high-pressure sodium) or MH (metal halide) systems and eliminate the need for cooling fans or ducting.

The 6-bar configuration uses intelligent heat-dispelling technology to maintain a large coverage footprint and a uniform PPFD (photosynthetic photon flux density) output. Connect up to 15 SE 7000 LED grow lights using the daisy chain function to easily scale your setup to match your crop size. The dimming knob takes the guesswork out of adjusting the spectrum with visible markings for 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100%. Users report that the dimming knob typically produces a maximum PPFD that is a little above at 80%, and a little below at the other settings, but it is reasonably accurate.

The detachable Meanwell driver and a long power cord reduce ambient heat in your growing space for an extended lifespan (approximately 50,000 hours). The LED driver takes the fluctuating AC and stabilizes its output into a constant state at a far lower intensity than what is coming in from the mainline. The entire setup is powered by a waterproof circuit board, so you can rest easy knowing that your plants will be the only things soaking up moisture.

The aluminum heat sink absorbs heat generated by LEDs and radiates it back into the surrounding air. This prevents overheating and ensures the internal temperature of the LED grow lights stays relatively stable. Without this technology, an LED grow light system would require fans or other active systems to cool the light fixtures. Fans often place a heavier load on electricity supply and increase utility costs. Not to mention, if the fans fail, so do the lights, jeopardizing your plants and crushing your dreams of a successful yield.

These lights are suitable for growing rooms and tents, greenhouse cultivation, house gardens, or hydroponics. The Spider Farmer SE 7000 delivers a coverage area of 4 x 4 FT for commercial flower and 5 x 5 FT for personal flower. All the SE Series Spider Farmer lights come with five years of after-service, which is much longer than most competitors. The price tag is also a lot easier to on the wallet than similar products on the market. So, not only can you get the harvest you deserve without spending a fortune, but you also get five years of after-service support if anything goes sideways.

The SE 7000 can connect up to 15 lights to work together. You can operate and adjust all lighting using one convenient remote control.

Ultraviolet (UV) light benefits the early stages of plant growth, but it can still cause damage to crops if not used properly. Exposing plants to high concentrations of UV light can quickly kill them.

SE 7000 Spider Farmer grow lights can be returned or replaced within 30 days after delivery, in the precondition of non-artificial damage. Free components, repairing, and service can be provided within 90 days after delivery. After 3 months, customers will pay 1-way shipping fees and repair fees for replacement parts. Purchases that exceed 12 months are eligible for after-service up to 5 years from the date of purchase and are subject to 2-way shipping fees and repair fees.

The cost of repairs and replacement parts will depend on when the SE 7000 was purchased. It’s always recommended to keep your receipts and note the condition of the equipment when it is first received before it is set up.

Starting your herbal adventures with the wrong set of lights can be detrimental to your growing efforts, so making an educated purchase is a must. With so many options to choose from, it’s difficult to distinguish the quality LED grow lights from those selling broken promises of premium buds. Following is a list of the most important things you should look for when choosing an LED grow light.

Electricity Consumption: Your LED grow lights will have to operate for at least 10-11 hours each day. You should always check the units for total output. The options go up to 1,000W, but you shouldn’t settle for anything less than 300W.

Low Heat Output: Lights with higher heat output will burn out faster and need to be replaced sooner. LED grow lights with low heat output guarantee there won’t be any damage due to overheating and allow a smaller distance between the lamp and the plant.

Full-Spectrum Lights: To grow most efficiently, most plants need light in the red and blue spectrum, in addition to infrared and ultraviolet, depending on the stage. A full-spectrum LED grow light will provide different wavelengths to support each stage of the growth cycle.

Grow Space: A good rule-of-thumb for LED grow lights is 32 watts of actual wattage per square foot of growing space for flowering medical or other large flowering plants.
