LED grow light system and method

Abstract

A system and method for providing artificial lighting for indoor plant growth features a grow light fixture with a flat aluminum printed circuit board (PCB) populated with at least two LED variants, such as red (620-660 nm) and blue (450-470 nm), housed in a metallic extrusion with a uniform cross-section. A transparent cover, made of acrylic or polycarbonate with a planar surface and two side lobes, snap-fits to the housing. The fixture includes a local, independently controllable power supply with a network connection—wired (e.g., Ethernet) or wireless (e.g., WiFi, Bluetooth)—enabling remote LED control. This design offers an efficient, cost-effective lighting solution for commercial greenhouses or vertical farms, with independently powered and controlled units.
