With a combination of HPS and 25 % light-emitting diode lights with a faint level of 364 µmol / m2 / s on 5.8 hectares in Monster , the Netherlands , Lugt Lisianthus is capable to grow more flowers and firmer stem with a ledge life of 14 days . “ We select Signify because of the tone and dependability they furnish .
