Growth Technology - Clean Light Hobby Unit

The CleanLight technique is a clean and effective way of protecting and strengthening the crops.

How does CleanLight work?

CleanLight is based on UV technology. It has been known that UV light kills fungi for more than 100 years. However, this early knowledge concerned very high doses of UV light. If crops were exposed to this kind of dosage, then people, crops and biological control would be at risk. So conventional UV disinfection is not applicable to greenhouse farming crops.

The CleanLight technique works with a dosage, which:

a) Is high enough to kill fungi, bacteria and viruses

b) Is low enough to ensure crops will not suffer any damage.

Using CleanLight allows horticulturists to realise at least a 50% reduction in fungicides when combating diseases, such as Mildew and Botrytis. The reduced spraying and daily dosage of CleanLight makes the plant stronger, more defensible and vital, which will also increase the quality of crops and products.

This technique will also save on labour costs when fighting fungi, viruses and bacteria. The technique offers a re-entry time of mere seconds and will prevent Maximum Residue Level (MRL) concerns. Plus it avoids any excess moisture in the greenhouse or on crops and the application is completely free of any residue!
