For decades, HPS lights have lit up greenhouses around the world. But as energy costs rise and technology advances, growers are turning to LED lighting for better performance and smarter control.

Here’s what changes when you switch from HPS to LED:

1. More Light, Less Energy

LEDs produce more light per watt, meaning you get the same output with significantly lower electricity costs.

2. Tailored Light Recipes

LEDs offer customizable spectrums. You can control each channel independently to match your crop’s exact needs that’s something HPS simply can’t do.

3.  Smarter Control

Forget the checkerboard method of switching off every second HPS light. With LEDs, you can dim the lights wirelessly, maintaining uniformity and improving efficiency.

4.  Instant On/Off

HPS lights take time to warm up and cool down. LEDs respond immediately, making them perfect for energy grid balancing and dynamic lighting strategies.

5.  Better Uniformity

LEDs allow precise control over light intensity, ensuring consistent coverage across your greenhouse.
