Description
Provides artificial sunlight to grow crops.
Crops need Water and sunlight to grow. Without water the plant will wither and die. Without sunlight/UV light it will stop growing, but won't wither.
Guide (Farming) provides additional info on how to setup farming with hydroponic tray.
Illumination pattern
The Illumination pattern of the Grow Light has changed as of the Respawn Update: Round Robin Community Starts (Update v0.2.6085.26682).
Lighting area is not a focused cone but a 8x7 small grid rectangle with the light being projected out 3 small grids from each side of the grow light.
Previous to this update, the lighting area was a 7x6 rectangle centred on the small grid of the grow light containing the power connection.
Although ceiling mounting is more logical with regard to real plants growing, it is worth noting that floor mounting will provide the same illumination pattern with no downside.
Ceiling mounting grow lights two large grids above planters will not provide adequate light to the planters.

Wall Mounting vs Ceiling Mounting
Illumination Radius is at its maximum 2-4 small grids away which coincides with one large grid size, so ceiling mounting has the best coverage of 41, against 37 of wall mounting. However this creates difficulty for LArRE or Harvie as those can only be mounted on ceiling. When either is expected to be used, wall mounting is more flexible then ceiling mounting. Note that Harvie requires space to either side of for chutes, so it can only harvest from trays with some separation between them; a Hydroponics LArRE does not have this limitation.
