can a ring light grow plants 3.5" Full Spectrum Grow Light Ring – Auto On/Off TimerThis is the grow light that I use in my shop for any plants stored on shelves away from the windows. For plants that are not succulents, these work well when the height of the plant does not exceed 20" from soil to top or table to top of plant if you get a base stand. For taller plants, check out our larger 6. 3" ring. For Succulents, it is important to place the light within 4 6" of the plant on the brightest setting for 12 hour cycles. The closer,

This is the grow light that I use in my shop for any plants stored on shelves away from the windows. For plants that are not succulents, these work well when the height of the plant does not exceed 20" from soil to top or table to top of plant if you get a base stand. For taller plants, check out our larger 6.3" ring.

For Succulents, it is important to place the light within 4-6" of the plant on the brightest setting for 12 hour cycles. The closer, the better. This has yielded healthy happy plants on my shelves. For Succulents, these are for pots up to 8" wide or covering 1-3 plants directly under the ring. Haworthia, Gasteria and Jade can be exceptions not directly under the light.  Moving the light higher to cover more space does not work well for succulents. To cover larger areas, check out our 6.3" ring if pot depth is over 5" or you have a neighboring plant to hold the pole.

Why Succulents Love This Grow Light: Succulents require the strongest light of any houseplant. South or east-facing windows are ideal, but adding a grow light ensures vibrant colors, compact shapes, and healthy growth – preventing stretching (etiolation), faded colors, and tiny new leaves. 

Pro Tips from Our Shop:

• We use these exact lights on succulents stored away from windows to maintain perfect form
• Use red/blue or red/blue/warm light for wintering succulents that etiolate (Stretch out) under grow lights. It will move plant energy to roots and stem health. I do not carry any plants that etiolate under these grow lights.
• Set auto timer for 7am–7pm daily coverage
• Always position as close as possible to succulents, especially succulents. My 6.3" rings are specifically designed to go all the way down to 10" for more LEDs , covering a larger area, close to the plants.
