Toronto, CA, April 25, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- VividGro, a leader in agricultural technology for consumer and commercial applications, is exhibiting its line of indoor LED lighting ideal for cannabis growers at the Toronto O’Cannabiz Conference and Expo 2019, Booth #235, in the Main Exhibit Hall of the Toronto International Centre, April 25 - 27, 2019.
Pointing to the increased interest in indoor grow technologies in Canada, Randy Shipley, VividGro Vice President of Sales, explained, “Canada is now a hotbed of activity thanks to the recent legislation changes to the cannabis industry.”
“We’re seeing a dramatic increase in demand from both the home grower as well as large-scale indoor grow operations. As cannabis growers are looking to maximize their yields, while optimizing energy efficiency, our lighting and smart farm solutions will continue to shine over the competition,” declared Shipley.
VividGro will be highlighting its line of LED lighting and “intelligent farming” products at this year’s show. Following are product descriptions:
GroBar X is a bright and cool LED lighting system that allows for flexible installation. Packaged in a lightweight, aluminum fixture, designed for easy installation in vertical and free-hanging applications. The lightweight, aluminum fixture ensures long life and the decreased weight and slim-fitting design provides uniform coverage across the canopy with no hot spots – increasing yields. Energy efficient, the GroBar X gives off extremely low heat, allowing plants to be inches away from the light source for maximum efficiency. An easy to clean acrylic lens protects the LEDs against dust and sprays. The GroBar X is the light engine that enables our full line of GroMax and FlowerMax fixtures.
GrowMax offers a powerful LED fixture ideal for replacing standard CMH, fluorescent and metal halide bulbs. Bright, cool, and even touchable, the high quality light is ideal for home use or commercial environments.
FlowerMax combines customizable configurations of highly efficient GroBar X channels for maximum PPFD and yields. FlowerMax provides uniform coverage across the canopy, with no hot spots, while significantly reducing the cost of A/C in up front and ongoing operations.
GroNet is an “intelligent farming” platform that features sensing, monitoring, alerting and automation (SMAA) in a low-cost, end-to-end solution, powered by the Internet of Things (IoT).
Underscoring VividGro’s commitment to leading the agriculture technology revolution, VividGro’s Shipley added, “GroNet serves as the brain to our intelligent farming strategy. We’ve developed software and hardware, such as sensors and photometric equipment, to measure environmental conditions critical to growing crops. GroNet develops algorithms to determine and automate predictive and corrective actions, while on-going data analysis will enable growers to continually optimize conditions and improve yields.”
