In vertical farming, growers often encounter several challenges distinct from traditional greenhouse or single-level warehouse cultivation. Firstly, the proximity of the lights to the plants poses a significant concern. Secondly, achieving an evenly spread light spectrum across all plants is crucial. Additionally, maintaining optimal humidity, temperature, and air flow levels presents ongoing issues. To address these challenges, most vertical farming fixtures incorporate ample airflow and are designed to fit closely under shelves.
A notable advantage of the MegaDrive vertical fixtures is their centrally located drivers, which eliminate heat emission within the growth space. This design allows lights to be mounted directly under shelves, resulting in a more compact, uniform setup that effectively manages driver heat.
