As you know, light is essential for photosynthesis, which translates into plant growth and development. In the case of indoor crops, we use artificial light in the form of HPS or MH bulbs for assimilation lighting. To know the exact amount of light in our garden, we need appropriate equipment, which is the Milwaukee MW 700 luxmeter. The MW 700 is a portable light intensity measuring device. It is equipped with a light sensor connected to the meter in the range of 0-50000 lux.
On average, the lighting in closed rooms is in the range of 100-1000 lux. The sensor is waterproof, so we can check the light intensity also in the lower parts of the water reservoir. Lux is a unit that indicates the density of light hitting a surface. Electronic lux meter with a waterproof probe (for measuring the light intensity, among others for HPS lamps)
