New App helps to determine greenhouse daily light
Added on 17 June 2020
The English/Spanish language app was designed by Paul Fisher of the University of Florida Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences Extension and Bruce MacKay of Thomas Baine Ltd. You can access the app here.
"Growers often do these lighting calculations if they use supplemental lighting in a greenhouse, or have sole-source LED lighting in an indoor facility," Fisher says. He explains how to use the apps in English and Spanish videos at the Greenhouse Training Online YouTube channel (tinyurl.com/UFGTO).
"Our industry advisory group in the Floriculture Research Alliance identified the need for this app," he adds.
The app and videos are training materials in the Greenhouse Training Online courses for growers in greenhouse management, including Greenhouse 101 and Hydroponic Vegetable Production. For more information, email greenhousetraining@ifas.ufl.edu.
