Kasey Holland discusses how DesignLights Consortium's Horticultural Qualified Products List helps growers fine-tune their lighting controls.
As a greenhouse grower, you already understand the power of sunlight. But what if you could fine-tune that light — by spectrum, intensity, timing, and distribution — just like you do with irrigation and nutrients? That’s exactly what LED lighting paired with advanced controls makes possible.
The best way to find high-quality fixtures ready for that kind of precision is the DLC Horticultural Qualified Products List (Hort QPL). Gone are the days of one-size-fits-all lighting. Today’s commercial greenhouses are embracing dynamic lighting strategies — adjusting output based on DLI, plant growth stage, or even weather conditions.
Not all LEDs are built the same.
The Hort QPL shines by helping growers find high-quality fixtures that meet their specific needs.
