| | To optimise your growing capacity | |
| | Lighting forms an integral part of your growing set up and the more you can respond to the changing circumstances means optimising operations and preventing unnecessary losses. Horticultural LED technologies can provide growers all the key ingredients needed to realise their recipe for growth.
Fargro understands the challenges growers face and that each plant requires different lighting requirements, we can work with you to find the best solution to those requirements. Fargro and the experts at Signify can work alongside you to understand the outcomes you desire to create a custom lighting plan with specific spectra tailored to the plant needs. | |
