New LED lamp rates highly in hybrid lighting trial

A trial with hybrid lighting (SON-T + LED) at Dutch tomato nursery Gebroeders Koot has yielded good results. The LED lamp used in the
Alstroemeria can get off to a good start with higher light levels than are generally used at present.

Hybrid lighting ramps up alstroemeria yields

Hoogenboom Alstroemeria in Nieuwe Wetering in the Netherlands expanded its grow light system last year. In one section of the greenhouse they have installed
Influenced by the high cost of electricity, subsidies and the ageing of their previous systems, two Belgian nurseries installed hybrid top lighting.

Higher light level boosts yields, lost heat easy to make up for

Completely separately from one another, two Belgian rose growers with premises barely ten kilometres apart came to the conclusion that a combination of SON-T
LED lighting allows energy consumption to be reduced in the cultivation of tomatoes with assimilation lighting: energy consumption can be cut in half.
