How Much Light is Too Much?
When you manufacture the most powerful grow light in the world, this is a question we often get. The short answer is your plants will tell you. The deeper answer is, well, it depends on what other factors in your environment are limiting your crop from fully utilizing all available light – watering schedule? Leaf surface temperature? Ambient CO2? Genetics?
For our cannabis clients, the question is actually ‘How much light can cannabis take?’ The answer to that question is, we really don’t know (click the link to listen to Dr. Bruce Bugbee’s thoughts on the matter).
On of our clients in Michigan is really pushing their genetics to find out, and after setting back-to-back, record-breaking harvests all throughout 2020, they still haven’t found the top! Follow this link for a brief summary of their results over 40 harvests.
The Infrared Spike
Ever notice how most spectral charts for grow lights stop around the far-red region? That’s because extending the chart into the infrared region would show one of the biggest problems with plasma-burning light sources… an enormous spike of radiative heat!
Savings Add Up (and so do yields)
Every year the wholesale price for flower and biomass is dropping. What’s more, the global cannabis market is consolidating even before widespread legalization has occured. Top that off with energy restrictions popping up in various markets aroud the world. With this in mind, it’s obvious that any licensed cultivator needs every edge they can get.
We know the biggest barrier to entry with an LED grow light system is the upfront cost. When you break down the operating cost figures as compared to an HPS system, reality sets in – can you afford not to go LED? See for yourself.

Greenhouse Toplighting Methods
Not every greenhouse is created equal, which is why we’ve developed two distinct models for greenhouse illumination. The O6i model gives the maximum amount of supplemental light, casts the widest footprint, and uses fewer fixtures.
By contrast, our Pleiades model is lower powered with a slim profile designed to line the trusses of your greenhouse. It is best-suited for greenhouses and hoophouses where uniformity and efficacy are the priorities.
At Fohse, we design and build the best grow lights for cannabis on the market for any grow space. Whichever your preference, our team will help you make the right decision.

Precision Light Planning
We have toured close to a thousand cultivation facilities around the world. This has taught us that every environment is unique with its own special requirements. When you work with Fohse, our partnership kicks off with a thorough review of your grow room plans and your goals.
Our light planning team heads into our simulation software to develop a 100% custom configuration. This configuration is tailor-fit to the unique needs of your operation. We can even take it a step further. We can predict your cost of cooling, electricity, and how much you’ll save by owning an O6i system over time.
At Fohse, we put you first during every stage of growth. Our O6i is the proof we are dedicated to building efficient LED lights to grow plants that meet our clients needs.
Automated Light Response
Light Harvesting allows for self-adjustment in increments as little as 1% in real time based on the ever-changing light conditions in your greenhouse. This makes it one of the most flexible and better performing LED lights to grow plants.

DLI Planning
In greenhouse environments your primary light source is an ever changing variable. As a result, meeting your light intensity and consistency needs comes down to proper Daily Light Integral (DLI) planning from the start.
1
| 1,000 μmol/m2s × 60 s/min × 60 min/hr × 12 hr/day | = 43.2 mol/m2day |
| 1,000,000 μmol/mol |

DETERMINE YOUR REGION’S LOWEST DLI MONTH
For the Northen Hemisphere the lowest DLI month would be December. This information is important for determining how much supplemental light you need to plan for. Consequently you can maintain your target PPFD & DLI during the dimmest month of the year. Use the
DLI Map pop-out
in this section to estimate your region’s DLI in any month.
3
DETERMINE YOUR MAX SUPPLEMENTAL DLI NEED
Subtract your minimum naturally provided DLI from your maximum target DLI to get your supplemental DLI need.As an example, the minimum naturally provided DLI in California during December would be 15 mol/m2day. If your maximum target DLI is 43.2 mol/m2day then your maximum supplemental DLI would be
27.8 mol/m2day.
4
The average PPFD target your supplemental light plan should achieve can be calculated by reversing the equation in Step 1. In the case of our example, 27.8 mol/m2day would come out to a PPFD of
643 μmol/m2s.
Power Surges? We're Ready
With the O6i you get long-lasting and cost-saving greenhouse grow lights that don’t require constant maintenance. Enjoy the best grow lights for cannabis without constant upgrading with the O6i. Buy right. Buy once.
L90:

(Based on diode manufacturer specs)
Bulbs Die Suddenly. LEDs slowly fade.
Our L90 and L70 figures come straight from the data sheets and stress-testing provided by our diode manufacturers. Predicting the PPF degradation of your O6i luminaires is as simple as dividing the L-figures by the number of hours of daily use. If you were to run your O6i fixtures at full power for 12 hours a day you can reasonably expect its PPF to reduce by 30% over the course of 25 years. But this is only part of the picture. In practical use, you’ll rarely (if ever) run your O6i system at full power. With the O6i you get the best grow lights for cannabis on the market the first time around. When we say “Buy right, Buy once” we truly mean once.

Make a Friend Out of Heat
Unlike obsolete plasma grow lights the A3i has no massive ‘infrared spike’ hidden on the far ends of its spectrum, meaning drastically less heat radiating down on your canopy.
Higher Harvest Quality
More cannibinoids and better terpene profiles means you’ll enjoy sme of your best harvests yet with A3i.
