GE LED Grow Light BR30 9W Indoor Plant Bulb

Description

Product Overview

The GE Grow Light Advanced Red BR30 is a high‑efficiency LED bulb designed specifically for indoor plant cultivation. Each 9‑watt unit delivers 500 lumens of bright white light while emitting a full spectrum that includes the blue and red wavelengths plants need for photosynthesis. Housed in durable plastic with a BR30 shape and standard E26 medium base, the bulbs fit existing fixtures without additional hardware. Certified by cULus and built to operate on 100‑120V, 60 Hz power, they provide up to 25,000 hours of life, translating to years of low‑maintenance lighting for herbs, tomatoes, flowers, and more.

Usage

These bulbs excel in indoor garden settings such as kitchen herb racks, grow tents, and small greenhouse shelves. Position the light about 16 inches above the foliage and run it for 12 hours daily to mimic natural daylight cycles. The energy‑efficient design reduces electricity costs while maintaining optimal plant growth, making it suitable for hobbyists and small‑scale growers alike.
