If you're striving for bigger, healthier yields, it’s time to look below the surface - or rather, below the canopy...
Under canopy lighting is quickly becoming a grow room essential, targeting the often-neglected lower sections of plants and helping growers achieve their maximum potential.
Flat, even plant canopies are ideal for making the most of your grow light's output, soaking up as much light as possible across the top layer. However, one major downside of this approach is that the lower parts of the plant often remain in shadow. In outdoor settings, natural light can penetrate these areas, but in a grow room, it’s a different story; without sufficient light, lower leaves and branches can underperform, limiting overall growth and yield.
Enter under canopy lighting - the game-changer for growers looking to optimise their results. By placing lights beneath the canopy, you can direct light upwards to the shaded areas, allowing the bottom sections of plants to thrive. This not only boosts development but also promotes uniform growth throughout the plant, leading to higher-quality yields.
Take the Omega Under Canopy LED as an example. This compact yet powerful grow light is specifically designed to address under canopy lighting needs. Running at just 120 watts, it delivers an impressive efficacy of 2.8 µmol/J and a PPF of 340 µmol/s, providing high energy efficiency and powerful performance.
What makes the Omega Under Canopy LED even better is its durability. Positioned on the floor, under canopy lights are naturally exposed to splashes, spills, and dust. Thanks to its IP66 rating, this unit is completely dust-tight and resistant to water jets, so you don’t have to worry about wear and tear in challenging environments.
The Omega also features a full-spectrum output, ensuring that every part of your plant receives the balanced light it needs to grow. Whether you're a seasoned grower or just starting out, adding under canopy lighting to your setup is one of the best ways to improve your harvest.
So, is under canopy lighting the secret to bigger yields? Absolutely. By addressing the light deficit in shaded areas, you can unlock your plants’ full potential and take your growing game to the next level.
