When I was still working as technical assistant, I had an opportunity to work on hydroponics products, got a chance to grow plants indoor using hydroponics technology and it was cool. It was growing plants without using soil – only water, nutrients and hydroponics equipment. But one thing was missing in my experiment – floodlights. Although there was fluorescent lamp but it was not enough.  Flowering plants did not produce beautiful, big and colorful flowers; ornamental plants’ leaves were not as green compared to leafy plants grown outdoor. The tomatoes which I planted did not bear fruit, they grew so tall and the stems were really thin and weak.

In planting indoor, one needs appropriate floodlights so that the plants’ photosynthesis could be supported and in return would give you the result that you wanted.  For all indoor plants – be it hydroponics, normal plant or greenhouses, floodlights are needed to support the plants’ needs.
