HortiLED products feature unique LED optics, custom engineered to deliver optimum lighting performance for specific indoor and greenhouse cannabis cultivations. The products will allow growers to achieve the same lighting performance as they would from traditional sources.

The HortiLED line includes:

HortiLED TOP: Designed for performance and efficacy, the HortiLED TOP is a versatile top-lighting system with a light output of 860 μmol/m².s and a system efficacy of 2.7 μmol/J, which will deliver optimum performance and energy savings for growers.
HortiLED INTER: With its unique design, the HortiLED INTER delivers up to 125 μmol/m².s uniformly to the top surface of the leaves, even at the lowest levels of the canopy while also delivering system efficacies as high as 2.63 μmol/J. The narrow-profile modules are also designed to provide optimal heat-management, which enables close-to-canopy mounting without any burning.
HortiLED MULTI: This product is a small fixture that offers big energy savings that can lead to maximum space utilization and system efficacies as high as 2.5 μmol/J. Designed to deliver exceptional uniformity, in limited daylight, multilayer applications, the HortiLED MULTI ensures level illumination to each individual plant, regardless of its position in the layer.

“P.L. Light Systems’ new LED fixtures provide the advancement in light performance that the cannabis industry has been waiting for,” said Brad Nattrass, urban-gro CEO. “Up until now, LED light performance has not matched its promise of providing efficient light solutions for growers. HortiLED will change the way growers look at LED light fixtures, and optimize cannabis grows and energy performance.”

LIGHTING: Low-Profile LED

BIOS Lighting, Melbourne, Fla., introduce the Icarus™ Vi low-profile LED fixture for vertical farming applications, with broad “white” spectrum (not purple) and high Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR) photon efficacy in an industrial grade fixture.

The fixtures deliver up to 70% greater PAR photon efficacy and 50% more system efficiency than 1000W HID. With a vertical dimension of only 1.5”, Icarus Vi LED low profile fixtures can be mounted within 3’ or 4’ racking systems to deliver more uniform PAR levels over wide areas and multiple layers of production, maximizing crop yield per square foot.

Icarus Vi fixtures have an off-board LED driver, and can be powered through an optional remote powering system based on VoltServer’s groundbreaking Digital Electricity™ over Class II wiring. VoltServer allows fixtures to be powered from a nearby climate-controlled server room using optical fiber cables or off-the-shelf CAT 5e wiring.

This approach can significantly reduce equipment and labor costs, slash energy costs associated with expansive air conditioning, lower grow house temperatures—all while consuming 40% less energy required to produce an equivalent amount of delivered PAR than 1000W HPS.

“It is time to bring commercial crop production out of the ‘purple haze’ and into the white light, as BIOS broad white spectrum delivers the highest PAR photon efficiency along with clear cost benefits,” said Sean Tegart, BIOS president/CEO.

“Icarus Vi low=profile LED fixtures outperform other LED lighting products on the market; when paired with the optional VoltServer Digital Electricity remote powering system, you’ve got a next-generation purple-light killer for the cannabis market that offers immediate cost savings and realizable ROI.”

Biological Innovations and Optimization Systems, LLC (BIOS) is a recognized innovator in the biological application of LED lighting.  By integrating years of biological and horticultural expertise with science first developed at NASA for Bioregenerative Life Support Systems as well as the International Space Station, and the latest advancements in LED lighting and controls, BIOS creates lighting technologies that deliver unparalleled biological and horticultural results.

LIGHTING: T5 LED Lamp

Transcend Lighting, New York, offers the LED T5 Horticultural Lamp that can be used with any current T5 fluorescent fixture.

As a direct replacement for 4’-length 54-watt fluorescent T5 lamps without any re-wiring, the LED tube offers the same amount of light with 45% less energy consumption. Heat output (80 BTUs per lamp) is also 45% lower than fluorescent helping save on HVAC costs.

The lamp’s 55 micro-moles per second output is at an efficiency of 1.83 μmoles/joule with a seed-to-harvest photosynthetic white color, and operates at a lifetime of 50,000 hours (during five years of 24-hour use). The shatterproof unit is designed and manufactured in the United States with a five-year warranty, and is 100% recyclable.

Custom output colors are also available.

CULTIVATION: Blackout Curtain

Ludvig Svensson Inc., Charlotte, N.C., offers Obscura screens from AB Ludvig Svensson of Kinna, Sweden, for total blackout conditions and control of escaping light glare.

The double-layered version of the screen provides up to 99.9% of total blackout from daylight in greenhouse condition, along with maximum cooling with reflective upper layers.

The screens also meet North American fire codes.

DRY TRIMMER: Reduced Size

Pro-Cut Leaf Trimmer introduces the Pro-Cut Dry Mini trimmer to reduce space needs for automated trimming. The 64-lbs. unit takes up less than a 2’ X 2’ footprint, but includes a 14 ¾” X 9” basket and the ability (with adjustable points) to set eight positions for optimal tumbling and trim.

Features include an automatic timer (up to 15 minutes) and a Lexan® polycarbonate door. The unit includes two blades: a 304 stainless-steel blade, and a ultra-high-molecular-weight (UHMW) blade with a low coefficient of friction, high abrasion resistance and low moisture absorption.

The Canadian-made unit runs on 110V power.

LIGHTING: CML System

urban-gro, Lafayette, Colo., introduces the Soleil 315W Ceramic Metal Halide (CMH) system utilizing the patented P.L. Light Systems reflector technology.

The fixtures feature high-efficiency ballast technology from the Netherlands, with hinged ballast compartment for easy access. A new breathable membrane allows for cooler operation; built-in heat fins reduce operating temperatures by 6%.

Reflectors are used to ensure that the light penetrates deeper into the crop canopy in the most efficient way possible. The aluminum reflectors are highly polished and anodized, and the microscopic small facets provide a diffused light pattern and discourage accumulation of deposits on the lamp.

The unit is compatible with Delta and Zeta reflectors to suit specific lighting requirements.

urban-gro developed the specialized lighting system to address specific needs for the vegetative growth stage in cannabis cultivation facilities, and the customizable mounting system ensures easy install and hanging in a variety of grow set ups.

“P.L. Light Systems is a leader in the cannabis indoor and greenhouse industry because of their unique reflector choices,” said Shelly Peterson, urban-gro vice president of lighting, “which spread the light in the most efficient way needed to maximize yields to cultivation facilities.”
