Decoding LED Grow Lights: Beyond the Numbers
With an ever-expanding market and a surge in innovative horticultural LED lighting fixtures, it's crucial for consumers to tread carefully. In 2021, an age-old phrase remains incredibly pertinent: "Lies, damn lies, and statistics."
The Power of Red Light in Greenhouse Farming
The use of supplemental lighting in greenhouse farming has become increasingly popular to increase plant growth and yield and has helped further develop our understanding of how the spectrum of light provided to plants affects plant growth and development.
Q&A with Dachnika Aquaponics
Maximum yield, scalability & low operating costs are only a few of the challenges our systems have resolved. The design is an extremely efficient bio-filter and no external waste collection equipment is needed.
Light Spectrum vs. µmols
In the ever-evolving landscape of LED grow lights, it's crucial to look beyond the surface when choosing. With many lighting companies and innovative horticultural LED lighting fixtures flooding the market, some resort to simplifying their products down to a single number.
Raspberry Cultivation in a Vertical Farm is a Promising Option for Increased Yield

In the Philips GrowWise Research Center by Signify, we explored how artificial lighting, hydroponics and precise climate control come together to optimize the growth of raspberries year-round.
New Insights and Data-driven Controls Come Together in Priva Connext
"Buying an LED installation is one thing; learning how to use it is another". After a long run-up, pot lily and pot chrysanthemum producer Van Schie started using two different LED installations in 2022 and 2023.
More cucumbers and lower energy consumption thanks to Signify's full LED at Qcumber Optimize Nature VOF

A small percentage of far-red light guarantees a good plant development. At full power, the system delivers 78 µmol/m2/sec (+41%) more than the old installation, while consuming 20% less energy.
Horticultural Energy Efficiency
The average lighting rebate outside of horticulture is typically in the $10,000 to $20,000 range, while the average horticulture rebate is more than $150,000-with some exceeding $1 million.
Horticulture LEDs and Photophyllâ„¢ Select LED
Cree LED is the first LED supplier to fully characterize products in horticulture metrics, such as PPF and Red PPF %, instead of lighting metrics, such as CCT and CRI.

Spain-based vertical farming company will reduce CO2 costs by 79% deploying Skytree's technology in its growing processes
Integrating Renewable Energy in Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA)
The energy demands of indoor farming can be substantial, leading to increased greenhouse gas emissions and environmental strain. Enter renewable energy - a game-changing approach to powering CEA systems while reducing their carbon footprint.
LES SERRES BERTRAND EMBRACES THE DYNAMIC LED REVOLUTION WITH SOLLUM TECHNOLOGIES
Les Serres Bertrand, a leader in the greenhouse industry, has chosen to install Sollum®'s dynamic LED lighting solution for its tomato greenhouse located in Lanoraie, Qu©bec, which they acquired in 2017. This investment is the company's first foray into LED technology.
How Intercanopy Lighting Can Help Your Grow
Even though light is absorbed by leaves at the top of the canopy, shading from neighboring leaves reduces the light available to leaves lower in the canopy and the plant is living up to less than its full photosynthetic potential.
Green Fields Leverages Fluence VYPR Fixtures to Produce High-Quality Crops Year Round
Israel's largest cannabis facility taps into REMY and Fluence's LED technology for better control over its cultivation process, leading to higher consistency throughout the grow
Oasis Springs Farm: How the Right LED Grow Lights Can Improve Crop Quality and Increase Production up to 33% in Shipping Containers
With technology always changing, when it came time to build their third container farm last year, they knew they needed to investigate the latest in LED grow lights.
