Powerful. Precise. Proven.
As leafy green and herb growers face seasonal light limitations such as short days and low light levels, as well as tight margins, and the need for consistent year-round quality, Heliospectra provides innovative, research-backed LED lighting solutions that help you take control—improving yields, plant health, and operational flexibility.
Why LED lighting for
Leafy Greens & herbs?
Leafy greens and herbs require precise environmental control to maintain flavor, texture, and shelf life. Heliospectra’s tunable LEDs and smart control systems, gives you just another tool to control your plant growth, you can:
Enhance aroma, flavor, and visual appeal
Stimulate essential oil production and boost pigmentation to meet growing consumer expectations for freshness and quality.
Speed up cycles, even in low-light seasons
Supplemental light supports steady production and shorter growth times year-round — without sacrificing crop uniformity.
Tailor growth with spectrum and intensity
For herbs, adjusting the balance of red, blue, and green light influences biomass, stretch, and structure. Compact crops reduce the need for growth regulators, while our broad spectrum 4-channel lamps (no FR, high blue, high green) promote strong, healthy plants with low MRL levels.
For lettuce, our 4-channel lamps with FR support dense centers, reduce glassiness, and improve foliage coverage. A late blue boost helps harden leaves, enhance nutrients, and improve flavor. High output across all major spectra ensures reliable results.
Improve resilience and reduce waste
End-of-production light strategies help strengthen plants for transport, improve shelf life, and minimize losses post-harvest.
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 to deliver measurable results in leafy green and herb cultivation:
Broad spectrum portfolio for tailored recipes
From fixed to fully tunable spectra, our solutions let you match light quality to crop type, growth stage, or production target.
Flexible far-red and green spectrum options
Manipulate morphology and speed up development using adjustable far-red or green wavelengths — ideal for crop steering.
Reliable output for consistent DLI coverage
High light uniformity and efficient photon output ensure your crops receive the right intensity and duration, even in winter.
Data-driven control with real-time precision
Smart systems automate lighting based on crop needs, time of day, or environmental changes — helping you stay in control and optimize every cycle.
