The State of Lighting in Commercial Cannabis

How much light is too much light? Are HPS fixtures good for my crop? How do I dial in my environment around my lighting? What’s the deal with UV? Are LED lights worth the upfront cost? How can I tell if a lighting brand is reputable or not? There are so many choices – where do I start?! As cannabis markets come online around the world, more and more lighting brands are popping up to capitalize on the ‘green rush’. Fohse – the company that has designed the most powerful and efficient LED fixture in the world – has organized a panel discussion in conjunction with Maximum Yield and industry veterans to help you navigate the tricky world of grow lighting. You’ll hear from experts in grow equipment distribution, commercial cultivation, crop science, horticultural lighting, and photon instrumentation—all of whom will offer unique perspectives on the state of lighting in commercial cannabis. You’ll also have an opportunity to ask your own questions directly to the panelists and glean their honest, experienced answers.
