Calculating DLI for Supplemental Greenhouse Lighting
The daily light integral (DLI) is the number of photosynthetically active photons (photons in the PAR range) accumulated in a square meter over the course of a day. It is a function of photosynthetic light intensity and duration (day length) and is usually expressed...
Sulfur & Chlorine – LED Killers
A very common application to eliminate powdery mildew in crops is the use of sulfur pots (burners) or Sulphur evaporators. Sulfur helps overcome common plant diseases such as mold, especially powdery mildew, by changing the pH on the surface of the plants. This pH change creates an unstable growing environment for fungal growth.

Our founders had decades of experience manufacturing light fixtures in both the United States and China, they knew the value proposition both offered; they understood that increased response time, faster product development and the ability to offer custom tailored solutions could only happen if we committed to offering Made in USA.
