Plant fill light is an artificial light source specifically designed for plant growth, aimed at supplementing the problem of insufficient natural light. They provide various wavelengths of light required by plants by simulating the solar spectrum, promoting photosynthesis, growth and development, and flowering and fruiting. The use of fill lights can provide stable lighting conditions for plants in any season and weather conditions, especially in winter or rainy days.

The types of fill lights include high-pressure sodium lamps, LED lamps, fluorescent lamps, etc. Among them, LED lamps are highly favored for their high efficiency, low energy consumption, and long lifespan. Different types of lamps have different spectral distributions, suitable for different plant species and growth stages. For example, blue light is beneficial for the generation of chlorophyll and nutrient accumulation, while red light promotes flower bud differentiation and fruit ripening.

In practical applications, the effectiveness of fill lights depends on multiple factors, such as the quality of the lighting fixture, light intensity, illumination time, and the characteristics of the plant itself. A reasonable lighting scheme can significantly increase the yield and quality of plants, improve their disease resistance and taste. Therefore, for home gardening enthusiasts and commercial growers, the scientific use of fill lights is an effective auxiliary tool.
