Reliable lighting is one of the biggest problems in microgreens production. Many ready-made LED lamps look good on paper but fail in practice: weak light, uneven coverage, overheating or unstable quality.

In this article we show a simple DIY LED lamp we used ourselves. Cheap, easy to build, easy to repair and proven in real growing conditions. You’ll see what components are needed, how the system works and how to assemble it step by step.
