Although they do grow well outdoors, there are a number of benefits to growing cucumbers inside a greenhouse. For one, cucumbers hate cold and frost, so they really thrive in a greenhouse environment. Another advantage is that you don’t need much room at all, and you can really take advantage of vertical space by using a trellis. Lastly, they simply grow quickly.
Cucumbers ripen from mid-summer to mid-autumn in a greenhouse, with a shorter season outdoors depending on the weather. Cucumbers are heat-loving plants that need light to thrive. But in some places, there are lack of sunlight to support the cucumbers’ growing. In order to be able to supply vegetables in time, supplemental lighting is a choice for them. This is the case with our Russian customer worried that cucumbers won't be available in time and won't grow well, so he decided to find lighting to replenish the light of his greenhouse cucumbers and get the cucumber supply to market.
Atop solution:
To solve the problems, our team designed and provided him with a lighting solution, Horti-Reina inter-canopy lighting.
Horti-Reina is a double-sides LED grow light on the canopy of plants that directs and focuses growth-stimulating light on the most important part of the crop. Features a narrow-profile design that minimizes the interception of light. It emits sidewards light distribution, keeps your lower leaves getting optimal uniform light and results in an increased yield.
