HID Lights & Equipment

HID (High-Intensity Discharge) lighting remains a popular choice for growers seeking powerful, efficient illumination across all growth stages. Ideal for both commercial and indoor setups, HID systems offer a strong light spectrum that supports vegetative and flowering phases.

Metal halide lamps emit a cool, blue-toned light for robust leaf and stem development, while high-pressure sodium (HPS) lamps deliver a warm, red spectrum that boosts flowering and fruiting. Many growers combine both for a full-cycle lighting solution.

Digital ballasts enhance energy efficiency, reduce heat, and allow for dimming and multi-wattage support, while traditional magnetic ballasts offer a simple, reliable alternative.

Advanced lighting controllers automate dimming, switching, and temperature-based adjustments, helping mimic natural light patterns and reduce plant stress.

Explore our full range of HID lamps, ballasts, and lighting controls to create a tailored grow room setup that promotes healthy, high-yielding plants.
