Welcome to a new episode from our Orchid Care for Beginners series.

歡迎收看《蘭花護理新手入門》系列的新一集。

Today we are talking about what to do if you don't have enough natural light for your orchid.

今天我們要討論的是，如果您沒有足夠的自然光來照料蘭花，該怎麼辦？

嗯，如果有人幫忙的話，是的。

You see, orchids are capable of doing so, so well under artificial light, which is a great help if you're growing your orchid at home in an apartment, you don't have any sunny orientation in your home, or you simply have a climate which is not very sunny.

你看，蘭花在人工光照下也能生長得很好，如果你是在公寓裡種植蘭花，家裡沒有陽光充足的地方，或者氣候不是很晴朗，那麼人工光照就能幫你大忙了。

Don't worry, the vast majority of orchids that are easily available and you can grow in your home will do absolutely fantastic with artificial light.

別擔心，絕大多數蘭花都很容易買到，而且您可以在家裡種植，它們在人工光照下絕對會生長得很好。

So today I'm going to try to demystify a little bit the subject of artificial light.

是以，今天我將嘗試為大家揭開人工光源的神祕面紗。

Don't worry, everything will be very beginner friendly.

別擔心，一切都會對初學者非常友好。

And if you were ever very sad that you don't have enough light and your orchids never did well, well, stick around because it's actually much easier than you think to have absolutely results with orchids.

如果你曾經因為沒有足夠的光照和蘭花長勢不佳而非常難過，那麼，請堅持下去，因為要想讓蘭花獲得絕對的效果，其實比你想象的要容易得多。

So before we start, as always, this series and this episode is sponsored by repotme.com, who offers you everything you could possibly need to properly take care of your orchids, from pots to potting mixes, fertilizers, accessories, and yes, even grow lights.

在我們開始之前，和往常一樣，本系列和本集由 repotme.com 贊助，該網站為您提供正確養護蘭花所需的一切，從花盆到混合盆栽、肥料、配件，甚至是生長燈。

They actually have a new line of grow lights.

實際上，他們有一系列新的生長燈。

I hope it's not out of stock at the moment when I'm filming this.

我希望在我拍攝這段視頻的時候，它還沒有斷貨。

So I'll link you to that down below in the description.

所以，我會在下面的描述中為你鏈接到這個鏈接。

After you've watched this video, you can check them out at any time.

觀看完這段視頻後，您可以隨時查看它們。

You're going to find products, both for orchids and other houseplants as well, such as cacti and succulents.

您可以在這裡找到蘭花和其他家庭盆栽植物（如仙人掌和多肉植物）的相關產品。

And I'll also share with you my personal favorite products that I've been using for years and years.

我還會和你們分享我個人最喜歡的產品，這些產品我已經用了很多年了。

Now you'll find everything down below in the description.

現在，您可以在下面的說明中找到所有內容。

Let's start with I am nothing without my wrist.

首先，沒有手腕，我什麼都不是。

Well, because it's better than very low light.

Even low light orchids such as Phalaenopsis and Paphiopedilum, they actually do better in brighter light conditions.

即使是蝴蝶蘭和鳳梨蘭等弱光蘭花，它們在強光條件下也能生長得更好。

Definitely brighter than maybe what you currently have in your office or maybe in your home.

絕對比你現在辦公室或家裡的燈光更亮。

If you're watching this video, I'm presuming you don't actually have much light.

如果你正在觀看這段視頻，我想你的光線其實並不充足。

Maybe you have a northern orientation in the northern hemisphere.

也許你的方位在北半球的北方。

An artificial light source is actually better than that.

If you have natural light, that is great.

如果有自然光，那就再好不過了。

Artificial light can actually totally replace natural light.

人造光實際上可以完全取代自然光。

And it is actually better than that shady corner in which you're trying to grow your orchid.

事實上，這比你試圖種植蘭花的陰暗角落要好得多。

So when I say artificial light, what do I mean?

那麼，我說的人造光是什麼意思呢？

Well, I'm referring to anything from your typical light fixture that you have in your house, maybe a desk lamp, all the way to more professional fixtures such as a grow light.

嗯，我指的是任何一種燈具，從家裡的典型燈具，也許是檯燈，一直到更專業的燈具，比如生長燈。

Both of these fixtures can absolutely work.

這兩種裝置絕對都能發揮作用。

Now, I won't go into the details of all of the types of light such as LED, fluorescent, all of that.

現在，我就不詳細介紹 LED、熒光燈等所有類型的光了。

Nowadays, LED lights, whether grow lights or home fixtures, are very popular because they are very efficient.

如今，無論是種植燈還是家用燈具，LED 燈都非常流行，因為它們非常高效。

They don't consume a lot and they produce a lot of brightness.

它們消耗不多，卻能產生很多亮度。

So if you have LED fixtures, that's great.

所以，如果你有 LED 燈具，那就再好不過了。

If you don't, if you're using something else, that is okay as well.

如果你沒有，如果你用的是其他東西，那也沒關係。

You might want to consider a little bit how much they consume, but that's a totally different story.

你可能需要考慮一下他們的消耗量，但這完全是兩碼事。

So artificial light, as the anything that is not produced by the sun.

是以，人造光，是指任何不是由太陽產生的光。

是的，根據我的經驗，就是這樣。

I did make some experiments with a tomato because it grows faster than an orchid.

我用西紅柿做了一些實驗，因為它比蘭花長得快。

And yes, I did have better results and better growth with a grow light.

是的，我用生長燈確實取得了更好的效果，長勢也更好。

With my Phalaenopsis orchids as well, I did notice that they do bloom a little bit better in a more diverse spectrum.

我的蝴蝶蘭也是如此，我確實注意到它們在更多樣化的光譜中開花會更好一些。

But many years ago, I did grow my orchids in just home artificial light conditions and they did absolutely fine.

但多年前，我確實只在家庭人工光照條件下種植過蘭花，它們的表現絕對不錯。

If you're a very very early beginner and you don't really know yet what type of grow lights to buy, you can just start with a desk lamp or whatever other source you have in your home until you get more knowledge about grow lights and what types you can find out there.

如果你是一個很早很早的初學者，還不知道該買什麼類型的生長燈，你可以先從檯燈或家裡的其他燈具開始，直到你對生長燈有了更多的瞭解，知道有哪些類型的生長燈。

As I was saying, any artificial light source is better than low light conditions.

正如我所說的，任何人造光源都比光線不足的條件要好。

But overall, in my experience, yes, a quote-unquote grow light is giving better results than a normal light fixture.

但總的來說，根據我的經驗，是的，"引號生長燈 "比普通燈具的效果更好。

Now, is artificial light suited for both lower light orchids such as Phalaenopsis and also higher light orchids such as Catleas?

現在，人工光源是否既適合蝴蝶蘭等弱光蘭花，也適合卡特萊等強光蘭花？

Yes, it is absolutely magnificent for all of these types of orchids.

是的，對於所有這些類型的蘭花來說，這絕對是一件壯觀的事情。

In my experience, there aren't too many orchid types that don't do well in I think they can do okay.

根據我的經驗，沒有多少蘭花品種在我認為的環境中生長不好。

I personally run a medium light setup right now, which is okay with my budget.

我個人現在使用的是中光設置，這符合我的預算。

So for the beginning, you don't necessarily need a spotlight in your home, a floodlight.

是以，剛開始的時候，您不一定需要在家裡安裝聚光燈或泛光燈。

But generally speaking, yes, higher light orchids can benefit tremendously from artificial light as well.

但一般來說，是的，光照較強的蘭花也能從人工光照中受益匪淺。

There are only a few other orchids which still perform noticeably better in natural light.

只有少數幾種蘭花在自然光下的表現仍然明顯更好。

So what types of grow lights we have there?

那麼，我們有哪些類型的生長燈呢？

Nowadays, you can find LED strips, LED tubes, single light sources, or some mounted on a sort of tripod.

如今，你可以找到 LED 燈條、LED 燈管、單個光源或一些安裝在三腳架上的光源。

You can also find regular bulbs that you can install in whatever fixture you want.

您還可以找到普通燈泡，可以安裝在任何您想要的燈具上。

There is a multitude of variations and you can find them available in many different locations.

它們的種類繁多，在許多不同的地方都能找到。

Some of these grow lights are advertised as full spectrum.

When you see full spectrum mentioned, just keep in mind it goes from somewhere in the purpley color spectrum to the red spectrum.

當你看到 "全光譜 "的提法時，只需記住它是從紫色光譜到紅色光譜的某處。

It doesn't have infrared and it should not have ultraviolet.

它沒有紅外線，也不應該有紫外線。

I'll stop here because I don't want to overload you with too much information, but you can definitely continue to research light spectrum and so on by yourselves.

我就說到這裡吧，因為我不想給你們太多資訊，但你們完全可以自己繼續研究光譜等問題。

But just the general idea is that full spectrum give you, theoretically at least, a wider spread of colors.

但一般的想法是，全光譜至少在理論上能給你提供更廣泛的色彩。

A normal light fixture in your home might only have peaks on the blue, let's say green and blue wavelengths, while orchids and plants in general need a lot of red and peaks on the blue as well.

家中的普通燈具可能只有藍色波峰，比如綠色和藍色波峰，而蘭花和一般植物則需要大量的紅色波峰和藍色波峰。

So a good quality full spectrum light should provide all of the necessary wavelengths that plants need to properly grow.

是以，優質的全光譜燈應能提供植物正常生長所需的所有波長。

Your home fixtures don't really provide all of these levels, hence why I was saying that I do believe grow lights are better than light fixtures in your home.

你家裡的燈具並不能提供所有這些級別，所以我才說我相信生長燈比你家裡的燈具更好。

But again, any artificial light type is better than deep shade.

但同樣，任何人工光照類型都比深色陰影要好。

So the way you install these grow lights will have to depend on the type of grow light you're using.

是以，您安裝這些生長燈的方式必須取決於您使用的生長燈類型。

I'm currently using shelves to display my orchids so I benefit from light tubes.

我現在用架子來展示我的蘭花，所以光管讓我受益匪淺。

What I use is a combination of a yellowish light with a purplish light.

我使用的是淡黃色燈光和紫色燈光的組合。

I personally dislike the purple grow lights and they have fallen out of favor in recent years because guess what?

我個人不喜歡紫色的植物生長燈，它們近年來已經不再受歡迎，因為你猜怎麼著？

But I do enjoy the color and how it looks like visually if I combine the yellow and the pink colors.

但我確實喜歡這種顏色，也喜歡把黃色和粉色結合在一起的視覺效果。

But if you have a single orchid, you can actually opt for one single lamp and Ripadmi actually has single lamps.

但如果你只有一盆蘭花，其實可以選擇一盞單燈，而瑞帕德米其實也有單燈。

I do believe they also have multiple lamps so you can actually cover multiple orchids.

我相信它們也有多盞燈，是以您實際上可以覆蓋多株蘭花。

But you can definitely find multiple variations of light sources that might cater for what you I have hundreds of orchids so I need a very efficient light system and individual lamps are not really all that efficient for me.

我養了幾百盆蘭花，所以我需要一個非常高效的光照系統，而單個燈具對我來說並不是那麼高效。

Imagine having to plug in 200, 300 adapters in my wall.

想象一下，我得在牆上插 200 或 300 個適配器。

So bottom line, choice is yours what type of grow light you go for.

是以，選擇哪種類型的生長燈是你的底線。

Just do a little bit of research first and see what options you have available.

先做一下調查，看看有哪些選擇。

Maybe I didn't cover them all and then you can make a decision based on what type of collection you have.

也許我沒有把它們都包括在內，然後您可以根據自己的收藏類型做出決定。
