Kevin Frender

Kevin Frender has been growing indoors under artificial lights in Colorado for more than 25 years, using every commercially available lighting technology available along the way. Over the years, he has grown thousands of different kinds of plants, from lettuce, peppers, and tomatoes to mangoes, orchids, and water lilies — all without the sun. About four years ago, Frender turned his hobby into a full-time job when he joined Black Dog LED.
