Powerful. Precise. Proven.
Strawberry growers face increasing pressure from rising energy costs, banned chemicals, and unpredictable market demands. In response to these challenges, Heliospectra provides innovative, research-backed LED lighting solutions that help you take control—improving yields, plant health, and operational flexibility.
Why LED lighting for soft fruits/
strawberries?
Strawberries are sensitive to light quality, spectrum, and duration. Therefore, with Heliospectra’s tunable LEDs and smart software platform, you can:
Balance generative & vegetative growth
Adjust red, far-red, and blue ratios to influence flowering, elongation, and canopy size—maximizing both yield and quality.
Boost disease resistance naturally
As chemical options shrink, stronger plants are the new frontline. Consequently, the right spectrum builds resilient crops better able to resist mildew, botrytis, and other diseases.
Optimize for june bearers or everbearers
In addition, flexible lighting means you can switch between cultivars and production cycles without replacing infrastructure.
Lower energy costs without sacrificing yield
Replace energy-hungry HPS fixtures with efficient, spectrum-optimized LEDs. In addition, pair with energy screens or dehumidifiers to control climate and reduce costs.
The science behind the light
Backed by nearly two decades of plant research, Heliospectra’s lighting solutions combine proven spectral strategies with advanced control technologies. As a result, they deliver measurable outcomes in soft fruit/ strawberry cultivation:
Full spectrum 12h + 3h red + 10 min end-of-day Far-Red
This strategy promotes flowering without overstressing plants.
Tunable far red (8–10%)
This approach gently stretches plants like Favori, and as a result, encourages larger canopies & higher yields.
Dynamic control for short-day varieties
Short-day strawberries like Elsanta respond well to subtle red and far-red modulation. This, in turn, supports flower induction without creating imbalance.
Proven Spectra for Different Cultivars
Switch easily between Everbearers like Murano and June bearers like Malling Centenary.
