Our research into growing under LED lighting is still ongoing, but we would like to share some initial insights. How did the crops survive the dark period?
To answer that question, we looked into production results, light efficiency and root condition. Spoiler: around new year’s, there was a slight imbalance in the crops. Our sales specialist Rens Muusers talks about whether that balance has been restored. And our partner Grodan, expert in substrate cultivation, shares insights we have gained so far, for example on irrigation strategy.
