Hi,
A greenhouse is somewhat a grow room... Sorry, if I'm in the wrong forum.
looking into supplemental LED lighting for a greenhouse I came across a few issues and more questions. My trusted light guy on alibaba says a lot are going with the typical bar design used by hortibloom, spydrx and many others. That design does create too much shade for my taste. You're probably losing 40-50% of the direct light that way. Second I thought of these here https://opticledgrowlights.com/products/phatslim-1xl. They surely would cast less of a shadow. But I worry about the black heat sink being right under the cover and maybe collecting more heat that it actually would create.
I don't know, if it influences anything, but I would be using light diffusing acrylite (still waiting on accurate data sheets, tho) as a greenhouse cover or light diffusing PC.
Then looking further I found these two:
Has anybody had experience with these lights? I have watched a video with the cali lightworks guy, which I thought was quite impressive. The lights don't say anything about coverage...
