Spectrum Matters

The Phyto-Genesis Spectrum is meticulously designed to foster compact, high-quality plant growth, emphasizing flowers, fruits, and leaves. Utilizing 8 distinct LED colors, it harnesses photomorphogenesis, triggering plants' hormonal responses to minimize stem growth and enhance flower and fruit production. This results in more efficient space utilization and increased yields.

Ultraviolet: 3% ultraviolet light (greater than 400nm) mimics the sun's natural UV light, keeping plants bushier and more compact, more resistant to pathogens and insects, and producing more terpenes and pigments. Unlike supplemental UV light bars, PhytoMAX-4 evenly distributes UV light across the entire growing area, and at a concentration that gives your plants the benefits of ultraviolet throughout the entire growing cycle, not just restricted to the last couple weeks of flower.

Infrared / Far Red: Infrared / far red light (700-750nm) increases photosynthetic efficiency through the Emerson Effect. Too much can cause stem elongation but when paired with the right ratio of red and blue light as in the Phyto-Genesis Spectrum, it increases yields.

Violet: Violet light (400-450nm) better penetrates dense plant canopies to nourish lower leaves, allowing high-quality flowers and fruit to grow lower on the plant.

Blue: Blue light (450-480nm) triggers chlorophyll B photosynthesis more efficiently than green or yellow light, and helps keep leaves more compact for better canopy penetration.

Red: Red light (600-700nm) drives photosynthesis, but can also cause plants to elongate their stems if not matched with an appropriate amount of blue light.

SP versus SC Models

The only difference between the SP and SC models is the power cord and the voltage it can handle.

Unparalleled Yield and Quality

PhytoMAX-4 lights are designed to grow the highest-quality and highest-quantity harvests. Rather than striving for the highest-possible photons per watt, PhytoMAX-4 is designed to give the highest yield per watt while maximizing terpenes, pigments and cannibinoid production.

Active Cooling

PhytoMAX-4 increases efficiency and maximizes lifespan by actively cooling the LEDs. Cooler LEDs run more efficiently and have a longer lifespan, especially for the specialty UV and violet LEDs we use. While fans are a moving part, we've never had one fail in tens of thousands of lights over the past 13 years, plus our patented design includes multiple redundant fans. Even if one were to fail, your light will keep running just fine.

Energy Efficiency

Energy efficiency is vital for sustainable growing. The lights minimize energy use without sacrificing performance. Reduced heat output means lower cooling costs, creating a comfortable environment for plants and savings for growers.
