In the cannabis industry, leading Québec-based producer EXKA has announced the implementation of Sollum Technologies' cutting-edge dynamic LED grow light in its state-of-the-art greenhouse facilities in Mirabel. The employment of this lighting solution addresses the recently increased greenhouse footprint while enabling EXKA to make sustainability claims surrounding its production.
Sollum Technologies' LED grow light effectively mimics natural sunlight, which assists in optimizing growth. Its design allows for reduced energy consumption and operational costs, without sacrificing performance or crop yield. Additionally, the product has been characterized as easy to use and maintain, ensuring that the solution is hassle-free.
Dr. Maxime Paris, President of EXKA, shared about the partnership: "We are committed to improving the agronomic efficiency of cannabis production. Our research demonstrates that adjusting the light spectrum can positively influence yield and the production of secondary metabolites such as cannabinoids and terpenes. We believe that the precision and the customization of controls offered by Sollum's dynamic LED lighting will play a crucial role in enhancing the growth and potency of our cannabis plants."
