P.L. Light System’s HSE Daylight luminaires provide an ideal solution for Aqua Greens limited daylight aquaponics facility.

Experience the future of agriculture with Aqua Greens, an innovative indoor vertical farming setup boasting multiple shelves loaded with thriving plants nurtured under state-of-the-art artificial lighting.

YEAR-ROUND INDOOR LEAFY GREENS HARVEST

In order to offer a stable supply and pricing to their customers, Aqua Greens needs to achieve consistent production year-round. Given that the plants are grown in an indoor facility—with limited natural light—co-founders Pablo Alvarez and Craig Petten knew that they needed to have a good supplemental lighting strategy in place if the plants were to thrive.

They partnered with PL Light Systems to design the best lighting system for their particular application. They installed HSE Daylight fixtures throughout the facility and have consistently enjoyed excellent yields. The HSE Daylight fixture is designed to replicate natural daylight as closely as possible by delivering full spectrum light to the surface of the crop—making it an ideal solution for growing facilities with limited daylight. It also provides excellent uniformities at low mounting heights, lending itself perfectly to the multi-layer, vertical grow application at Aqua Greens.
