Which grow lamp should I get?


I have bought this single head led lamp but my seedlings got leggy then eventually went limp. I think it was due to the lack of sunlight, which is why I got the grow lamp in the first place but ita not doing a good job or maybe I should use other medium otger than pure coco coir. Other than that, I water them once or twice depending on soil moisture and provided a fan for air circulation. I dont know what to do so I am thinkjng that the light given isnt enough. now I dont know which grow lamp to get or I should still keep the same lamp. want to have feedback

    What are you growing?

    Easy rule of thumb is you want higher output, and broad, even light distribution. The second one, in this case

    Likely, the second image will have higher wattage, which is an easy number to find. Ideally, you could find out photon flux at a given light distance if that is specified.

    With your current light, how distributed is the light? What’s the growing setup like? Is this for just a tray of plants or a system?
