60cm T8 LED Fixture Hanging Frame

60cm T8 LED Fixture Hanging Frame 01

60cm T8 LED Fixture Hanging Frame

The 60cm T8 LED Fixture Hanging Frame is an excellent choice for indoor plant enthusiasts looking to enhance their propagation setup. Crafted from durable PVC, this sturdy frame is designed to easily suspend a 60cm T8 LED fixture and its 2 LED tubes (sold separately) above an XL propagation dome, ensuring optimal light distribution for successful germination and cutting propagation. The frame includes a length of 1.5m electrical cord and a 3-pin plug for straightforward installation and use.

Hanging the LED close to the top of the dome is crucial for optimal plant growth. This positioning maximizes the light output from our 18W fiture sets to the propagation dome, promoting seedling development and robust cutting rooting. The proximity ensures that plants receive the maximum amount of light with the least electicy usage.

Ideal for hobbyists and professional growers alike, this hanging frame offers a quick, easy and efficient solution for their propagation lighting, making it a must-have addition to any propagation station. Please note that the 6000K T8 LED fixture is not included and must be purchased separately.

With our T8 LED fixture installed in the hanging frame, the frame offers 29cm vertical and 62cm horizontal clearance for a propagation dome, allowing even the Garland XL High Dome Propagator to fit underneath.

30mm Microgreen Tray Mesh Bottom

30mm Microgreen Tray Mesh Bottom

The 30mm Microgreen Tray Mesh Bottom is 275mm wide and 535mm long. The mesh bottom makes this tray suitable for multiple uses.

With its low 30mm height, it can be filled to the brim using only about 4.5 liters of growing medium.

Coco coir based substrates/growing mediums are a very popular choice for growing microgreens at home, as it is a soft and airy medium with great moisture retention. Because the microgreen growing cycle is so short, with the seedling relying mostly on nutrients stored inside the seed itself, adding any supplements or additional nutrients to your substrate is not a necessity at all, although a lot of people do add a little bit of worm castings to their mixes, claiming better results.

Once you have added your substrate into the 30mm Microgreen Tray With Holes, water or mist spray lightly if the substrate is on the dry side and tamp the substrate down very lightly by hand, to get it to settle and flatten out nicely. Then gently sprinkle your seeds across the surface. Once this is done, a VERY thin layer of additional substrate may be sprinkled over the top of the seeds (using a baking sieve, for example)

Place the trays into a suitable environment for germination and mist or spray the top of the substrate regularly to prevent it from drying out. (A propagation dome will help keep substrate moist until your seeds have germinated, saving you a lot of effort. Remove the ). Do not overspray, as this will cause overly wet “swampy” subsurface conditions! Just keep the substrate slightly moist at all times.

Once your seeds have sprouted and grown to a harvestable size, you are able to clip off the delicious micro-leaves for your dishes and salads with a pair of pruning scissors.

30mm Microgreen Tray Mesh Bottom trays can also be used for other home and hobby purposes, like sifting out Mealworm Beetles if you are breeding them, or to sift grains, seeds, Perlite, etc.

50mm Microgreen Tray Without Holes

50mm Microgreen Tray Without Holes

The 50mm Microgreen Tray Without Holes has no drainage holes and is 275mm wide and 535mm long.

With its 50mm height, it can be filled to the brim using only about 7.5 liters of growing medium.

Clone Dome Light Frame

Clone Dome Light Frame

The Clone Dome Light Frame is another great addition to the Pot Scrog’s arsenal of simple and effective solutions to growers’ everyday problems.

The light frame was designed to work with 85W Fluorescent CFL lamps that have an E27 fitting, but other E27 lamps and bulbs can be used as well, as long as they can be plugged directly into a regular power outlet and have the right intensity and spectrum to germinate or root cuttings under. ( An E27 light fitting has a screw-in thread with a   27mm diameter )

Learn more about the art of cloning and plant propagation HERE.

The base of the Clone Dome Light Frame has also been designed to be large enough to accommodate various sizes of plant propagators and can even house a Garland XL High Dome Propagator, as can be seen in the picture below…

Clone Dome Light Frame with dome

Any propagator or humidity dome with base dimensions of up to 44cm x 64cm can sit inside the base of this unit.

The height of the center of the E27 light fitting is approx. 44 cm above the surface on which the light frame rests on, which means that the unit will easily accommodate various types of high dome propagators.

The light frame comes with a 1m long electrical cord and standard 3-point South African plug.

T8 LED Tubes and Fittings 60cm:

REMEMBER TO BUY 2 LED TUBES FOR EACH FITTING : )

T8 Fixture Connector Advice

Low cost, slim-line and ultra light, these can easily be installed over propagators or inside a propagation tent. They can also be hung vertically to be used as supplemental lighting for dark tent corners and in between plantings.

Each Double T8 LED Fitting is 615mm long and fits 2 x T8 LED tubes. PLEASE NOTE: These fittings are not the same as older fluorescent fittings (which have ballasts and starters) and should not be used for fluorescent tubes!

Each Clear T8 LED Tube is 600mm long, has a 9 Watt power draw, 6500K colour temperature, and Lumen output of 810 Lumens. PLEASE NOTE: These tubes are not the same as older fluorescent tubes and should not be used in fluorescent fittings!

For best results 4 to 6 T8 tubes are recommended above a single large sized propagator, like the Garland XL High Dome Propagator.

The LED tubes produce hardly any heat and can be hung as close to the cuttings or seedlings as possible to maximize the light intensity.

T8 LED Tubes and Fittings 60cm Assembly:

  • Always wire up and use correctly.
  • Never put strain on the connected electrical wire. Do not hang from electrical wire.
  • PLEASE NOTE: The holes of the hanging eyelets ( that are folded up, out of the casing, if needed, one on each side ) are too small to clip into standard rope ratchet clips. Use something like a round key-holder ring to go into the hanging eyelets and then clip the key ring into the rope ratchet clips if needed.
  • Take care when handling these units as they are light-duty items and can easily damage if dropped by accident.
  • For indoor use only
