Buy Low Price From Here Now Don't think you have room for grow lights and a humidifier for your plants? Think again. Winner of the Mailorder Gardening Association's 2000 Green Thumb award, this compact Intelligent Plant Light is the answer to all of your indoor gardening needs. Plug the light in, and the 9 watt full spectrum fluorescent lamp turns on and off automatically, with daylength in cycle with the seasons. The telescoping stem adjusts to fit plants 7" to 14"tall. And unlike most fluorescent shop lights, this plant light has a built in moisture sensor that reminds you when it's time to water. Just insert the water sensor in the soil, and a flashing light lets you know when the soil is dry. The pebbled base holds a 5 1/2" pot, and serves as a combination catch basin/humidity tray to create the right moisture balance for your plant.

"This is Fabulous" 2009-05-30By

I have 4 or 5 of the Intelligent Plant Lights, and one at work so I can grow my Orchids and African Violets. You set it for the season of the year and stick the water sensor in the plant and it has a flashing light when you need to water. My plants are beautiful because of this product. I did have to replace the grow light bulb recently but it lasted 3-4 years and I ordered it through Amazon too. If you want beautiful plants, order this light.

Arrived quickly. Easy to assemble. Easy to figure out the controls. Water sensor in the soil is nice for those who need reminders to water.
"Great Little Light!" 2007-07-18By

I am really sold on this light! It fits perfectly on top of my rolltop desk and keeps my african violet lush. I like that it is a convenient size-not too big, yet you can get a six inch pot on it. The light settings are a plus because I am using the winter setting in summer because my window gets some light but not enough for my violet. Very pleased with the quality of the product. I am going to buy another one.

I recieved my plant light in the mail and immediatly put it to good use. It is perfect for growing tropical carnivorous plants. So far, my Brazillian Grass Sundew (Drosera graminfolia) seems to love it.
"Great idea and effective for a variety of plants...." 2007-02-24By

These indoor plant lights are relatively inexpensive, provide good quality light and come with some added features that are good for keeping difficult to grow plants. For example, there is a moisture tray with raised studs to keep your plant above excess water. This is very good for orchids because it provides humidiy without having your plants sit in the water. Also, you can raise and lower the height of the light within limits. In addition, this unit has a moisture probe that you can push down into the soil or growing medium at different depths. When the plant needs to be watered an indicator light will tell you. By varying the depth of the probe, you are measuring for different degrees of dryness. Once you get the depth worked out, you are in business for that particular species of plant.
One of the poor design features of this unit is the timer. Interestingly, you need to plug it in at dawn to take advantage of the seasonal light cycle. In the manual, they suggest resetting the season on the first day of each season and plugging it in at sunrise. This isn't exactly covenient or well thought out. The probe also is bit light and has a short wire. A little extra slack would be very nice as would a heavier duty probe.
For specimen plants like African violets, miniature orchids and others that are difficult to grow, these things are great and cheap enough to leave in an office environment without worrying. The light is also very nice for a bedroom specimen plant and not bright enough from a distance to interfere with sleep. These lights also cast enough periphery light to be other plants nearby, if necessary. I sometimes do that when a particular plant is not blooming.
I have several of these and they are really a nice addition to the house. My house is a bit dark and this is a great way to add some additional light and a natural accident. The colors of flowers are also particularly vivid under this type of spectrum. I don't think you'll be disappointed if you pick a few of these up. They also make great gifts.
