Low Consumption Lighting Kit (Bloom) – Efficient CFL Flowering Lamp

The Low Consumption Lighting Kit (Bloom) is the definitive tool for growers who want to flower their plants with total safety, energy efficiency, and without the temperature headaches caused by traditional sodium lamps.

Is heat ruining your harvest and your peace of mind?

Problem: We know the feeling. You switch the photoperiod to 12/12, and suddenly your grow tent becomes an oven. High temperatures destroy the terpenes you've worked so hard for, stress the plants, and force you to install noisy extractors just to keep the climate stable. Plus, the fear of a high electricity bill or a "hot spot" on the thermal camera can make you feel like you're losing control of your operation.

Agitation: If you don't manage this, you end up with airy, tasteless buds and a constant state of nervousness, checking the thermometer every ten minutes. Growing in summer or in small spaces with HPS lights is practically a suicide mission for your crop. You shouldn't have to choose between a good harvest and your peace of mind.

Solution: This CFL (Compact Fluorescent Lamp) kit is the solution to regain control. Designed specifically for the flowering phase, it offers the perfect spectrum to fatten your flowers with minimal heat emission. It allows you to grow in confined spaces or during the hottest months of the year, ensuring that your plants focus on producing resin, not on surviving the heat.

More discretion, fewer worries

Discretion is key for any urban grower, and this kit is designed to keep your profile low. Unlike HPS systems that emit a lot of heat (which can be detected) and require powerful, noisy ventilation to cool down, this low-consumption kit runs cool. This means you can lower the power of your extractors, significantly reducing noise and vibration. Your neighbors won't hear a thing.

Its compact design makes it perfect for grow tents 60x60 or up to 80x80 cm, allowing you to set up a discreet micro-grow in a closet or a small corner of your house. Since it doesn't require an external ballast (it's integrated into the bulb), you avoid messy wiring and bulky equipment that takes up space and looks suspicious.

Control over the experience

• Specific Spectrum: The light emits a warm color temperature (2700K), scientifically optimized to stimulate flower production and density.
• Integrated Ballast: Forget about heavy external transformers. This system is Plug & Play; the technology is inside the bulb.
• Wattage Options: Available in powers ranging from 105W to 250W, allowing you to adjust the intensity exactly to the size of your space.
• High-Quality Reflector: Includes a grow light reflector with a stucco finish to maximize light diffusion and eliminate hot spots.
• Energy Efficiency: Drastically reduces electricity consumption compared to HID lamps, giving you control over your monthly expenses.

How to use it responsibly and comfortably

Using this kit is incredibly simple, but following these steps ensures maximum safety and durability for your equipment.

1. Prepare the socket: Ensure the E40 socket on the reflector is clean and the cable is not plugged into the wall yet.
2. Screw in carefully: Hold the CFL bulb by the plastic base, never by the glass tubes (they are fragile). Screw it firmly into the reflector.
3. Hang the system: Use pulleys to hang the reflector in your tent. Since it emits little heat, you can place it closer to the plants (about 10-15 cm) without burning them.
4. Plug and Play: Connect the cable directly to the outlet. No intermediate ballast is needed.
5. Storage: If you stop using it, keep the original box to store the bulb. It is delicate and needs protection.

Benefits of having everything under control

• Year-Round Growing: You can finally flower in summer without air conditioning.
• Safety First: Drastically reduces the risk of fire or burns compared to HPS.
• Economic Peace of Mind: Your electricity bill won't trigger any alarms.
• Terpene Preservation: Lower temperatures mean more aroma and flavor in your final harvest.
• Versatility: Perfect as a main light for small tents or as side reinforcement for larger grow lights.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use this kit for the growth phase?

This specific kit is designed for flowering (warm spectrum). For the vegetative phase, we recommend a CFL with a cool/blue spectrum, although this one could work for maintenance, it is not optimal for vigorous growth.

How close can I put the light to the plants?

This is the best part. You can place it very close, about 10 or 15 cm from the tips. This maximizes light penetration, which is lower in CFLs than in HPS, so proximity is your friend here.

Does it really consume less than a sodium lamp?

Yes, not only because of the nominal wattage but because you save on climate control (less extraction and no air conditioning needed). The efficiency in terms of lumens/watt is different, but the energy saving is real and noticeable on the bill.

Personal Experience of Pevgrow’s CEO (Alan)

I've always been a fan of CFL kits for keeping genetics or for those summer crops where turning on a 600W HPS is simply impossible due to the heat. What I like most about this kit is the "zero stress" factor. You plug it in, and you know it's not going to raise the temperature of the tent by 10 degrees in five minutes.

My personal trick is to use the 250W model in a small 80x80 tent for autoflowering strains in July and August. The result is surprisingly resinous because the terpenes don't evaporate from the heat. It's the perfect tool for the grower who wants quality without complicating their life with complex climate control systems.
