Since the start of his business, Bonner relied on traditional HPS lighting to meet the company’s supplemental lighting needs. However, the promise of LED grow lights intrigued Bonner. After reading and researching the different LED products and options, Bonner decided to conduct his own in-house trial with Philips LED toplighting.

With Philips LED toplighting, Bonner estimates a production increase of approximately 30 percent. This, coupled with improved product quality, guided Bonner in his decision to make a complete switch to Philips LED toplighting.
