MegaDrive® Vertical Series LED Lighting ‘The Joy of Cannabis’ by Larry Smith & Melanie Abrams

LED manufacturer California Lightworks unveiled its new MegaDrive® Vertical Series for indoor cannabis cultivators. This patented new LED system offers indoor cultivators the same technology greenhouses across the nation have adopted from California Lightworks to achieve dramatically lower total installed cost while boosting return on investment by reducing heat, energy consumption and their carbon footprint. The new MegaDrive® Vertical Series is designed to replace HPS lights in single-level indoor grow applications or on shelves in multilevel applications. Additionally, the new MegaDrive® Vertical Series fixtures are chainable; as many as 27 lights connect to a power unit and run from a single power drop. This makes the fixtures very thin and lightweight and can be installed at a fraction of the time and cost of existing fixtures. They also feature programmable two-channel spectrum control which allows veg, flower and finishing with the same fixture. A sophisticated and humorous guide to enhance your life and promote self-care through the science and magic of weed. With a toolkit of the basics to get you started and a curated set of 75 activities, The Joy of Cannabis is a road map to a higher and happier you. In each of the six sections, you’ll find science-based research as well as charts, essays, and fun facts. The activities—tested and approved by authors Melanie Abrams and Larry Smith—teach you how to amplify pleasure through bonding and intimacy, deepen meditation to help with social anxiety and sleep, and elevate your cooking with innovative cannabisinfused recipes.

25209 Hydra Unlimited - TetraBase Hydroponic Media

TetraBase™ from Hydra Unlimited® is the last hydroponic media growers will ever need. Clean and reusable, the new professional-grade product is engineered for exceptional highyield performance in deep water culture systems such as Hydra Unlimited’s pioneering HydraMax™. And now, the innovative media is offered in a smaller, more affordable one-litre bag. Unlike traditional clay media, advanced TetraBase won’t introduce dust and debris into a system that can clog fittings and jam pumps. Non-porous and pHneutral, it doesn’t attract and harbor pests or promote bacterial growth. Non-abrasive, it can be handled without gloves and is far easier to move than water-soaked clay media. The clay used in traditional hydroponic culture is typically mined. Eco-friendly TetraBase is made from 100% recycled materials. Ideal for a trial run of a single 5-1/2″ to 6″ net pot, a one-liter bag of Hydra Unlimited TetraBase costs $15.99 US; a six-litre bag covers six net pots and is $89.

TriPlaneTM luminaire LED Grow Lighting

As the first luminaire in the ParFX™ product family, the TriPlane leverages the best features of LED and HID technologies—high light output, controlled distribution, optimized efficiencies, and exceptional thermal management. With a light output of 2100 μmol/s and an efficacy of 3.2 μmol/J, the TriPlane sets a new standard for LED horticultural lighting as a true 1-for-1 replacement of the 1000W HID luminaire. Designed for maximum flexibility, the TriPlane’s LED modules can be adjusted independently in precise increments in either direction— allowing for highly customed light distribution, depending on the application. Delivering optimum color efficiencies, the TriPlane is available in two spectral recipes, which can be used in standalone LED applications, or in combination with HID luminaires for hybrid applications. A standard horticultural power connector and intuitive mounting brackets allow for a true plug-and-play retrofit of existing HID lighting installations.
