Start with the growing space.
Note the size of your canopy, the available mounting height and where power and controls will be located. Select a fixture around those requirements, rather than wattage alone.
Set up from the product instructions.
Use the mounting, electrical and operating guidance supplied for your specific fixture. Confirm any UV operating requirements and compatible controls with Alpha before use.
Introduce changes gradually.
Watch how your plants respond when you change output or position. Record the setting and height so you can compare results over time. Curling, bleaching or unusual stretching can have several causes; review light, temperature, water and nutrition together.
Keep the routine consistent.
Choose a light schedule appropriate to your crop and its stage of growth. Use a suitable timer or compatible controller to keep it consistent, and check the setup regularly.
