Growers looking for operational savings can still turn to utility incentive programs for upgrades to LED fixtures.

According to research at Sollum Technologies, the lighting recipe applied to a particular flower type can significantly influence its growth, development, and aesthetic appeal.

Trials show that variety-specific nuances in greenhouse and hydroponic lettuce, such as color, flavor, and morphology, can be enhanced by dynamic LED lighting.

American Floral Endowment’s next Grow Pro Webinar takes place May 16 and will focus on the use of LED lighting in greenhouse production.

According to one lighting company, since LEDs produce less radiant heat, growers can apply much higher levels of light, achieving high yields without stressing the plants.

Grow light research confirms the effects on white light on energy consumption and crop, as experience has shown with other indoor vegetable crops.

Purdue University researchers have designed two simple LED lighting strategies to increase yield and reduce energy costs for vertical farming.

This new resource from Sollum Technologies looks at how dynamic lighting can be another weapon in the IPM toolkit, and the relationship between lighting, pests, and biocontrol agents.

Research shows little impact on crops when replacing red light from white LEDs with red LEDs.

Despite some roadblocks, rising energy costs and the potential for a rapid return on investment are leading more growers to consider switching to LED lighting.

The DesignLights Consortium’s most recent Horticultural Lighting Technical Requirements are designed to foster sustainable growth in the controlled environment agriculture sector.

A lighting change is a process change, and LED lights need to be reviewed to ensure they are appropriate for the right facilities. Learn how one organization is doing so with your needs in mind.
