1 GOLDEN GLOW TM SPECTRA WHY STRONG WHITE GOLD FULL SPECTRUM CAN GROW ANY SPECIES

2 GOLDEN GLOW SPECTRA TM Smart Grow Systems has been developing and testing LED technologies with commercial cannabis growers since The following deck highlights how LED spectra has evolved to grow today cannabis better than ever!

3 PAR FROM SUN LIGHT UNDERSTANDING THE SUN S SPECTRA FOR OUTDOOR PHOTOSYNTHESIS IS THE FORMULA FOR QUALITY INDOOR HORTICULTURE PAR LIGHT. THE SUN S PHOTONIC ENERGY AND WAVELENGTH CREATES PHOTONS (ENERGY) TO PRODUCE PHOTOSYNTHESIS IN A RANGE OF NANOMETERS REFERRED TO AS PAR QUANTUM RESPONSE. THE SUN S PAR LIGHT IS THE BASELINE SMART GROW USED TO DESIGN ITS GOLDEN GLOW FULL SPECTRA. PAR RANGE OVER THE NEXT FEW PAGES SGS WILL TAKE YOU THROUGH THE EVOLUTION OF FLOWERING CANNABIS WITH INDOOR LED HORTICULTURE LIGHTING AND WHY THE GOLDEN GLOW SPECTRA STRONG WHITE BEST MIMICS THE SUN S PAR WAVELENGTH. EVOLUTION OF THE STRONG WHITE GOLD FULL SPECTRA

4 SUNLIGHT & GREEN HOUSE LIGHT PAR SUNLIGHT THE SUN S PHOTONIC WAVELENGTH CREATES PHOTONS (ENERGY) THAT COVERS THE WIDEST RANGE OF THE PAR AREA. NOTICE THAT THERE ARE ONLY SMALL GAPS IN THE TOTAL PAR AREA. GREEN HOUSE LIGHT GREEN HOUSES PROVIDE SIMILAR SPECTRUM TO THE SUN BUT FEWER PHOTONS (ENERGY) DUE TO DIFFUSION AND BLOCKING BY GLASS OR PLASTIC.

5 PAR HPS & LED HPS HPS LIGHTS S WAVELENGTH CREATES PHOTONS (ENERGY) THAT COVER A KEY RANGE OF THE PAR AREA IN THE ORANGE AND RED NANOMETER RANGE WHICH PRODUCES A GOLD SPECTRUM. HOWEVER IT HAS LARGE GAPS IN THE TOTAL PAR AREA. LED TRADITIONAL BLUE & RED DOMINATED LED HORTICULTURE LIGHTING WAVELENGTH HAS THE LARGEST GAPS IN THE PAR AREA. THIS LACK OF GREEN, YELLOW AND ORANGE PHOTONIC ENERGY, AS WELL AS, UV AND IR LIMIT THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THESE LIGHTS. THIS SPECTRUM OFTEN CAUSES PRE-FLOWER IN VEG PLANTS & DOESN T FINISH OFF VERY WELL IN REGARDS TO WEIGHT, DENSITY, TRICHOMES AND TERPENES.

6 GOLDEN GLOW SPECTRA TM PAR THE GOLDEN GLOW SPECTRA CREATES PHOTONS (ENERGY) OVER THE ENTIRE RANGE OF THE PAR AREA SIMILAR TO THE SUN. IT IS HIGH IN ORANGE AND RED PHOTONIC ENERGY WHICH IS CRITICAL FOR FLOWERING AND HAS NO GAPS IN THE WAVELENGTH.

7 GOLDEN GLOW SPECTRA TM STRONG WHITE GOLD SPECTRA PHOTONIC OUTPUT EVEN THOUGH THE STRONG WHITE LIGHT S GOLD SPECTRA DOES NOT LOOK RED TO THE HUMAN EYE, THE ORANGE/RED IS 50.98% OF TOTAL PPF% AND 44.2% OF TOTAL RADIOMETRIC FLUX%, WHICH IS A MEASURE OF PHOTONIC ENERGY OUTPUT.

8 PAR COMPARISONS

9 GLOSSARY OF TERMS Radiant Flux: The measured radiant power of the test item in units of watts from 350nm to 850 nm. Luminous Flux: The measured radiant power of the test item in units of lumens from 380nm to 780 nm. PPF ( nm): Photosynthetic Photon Flux - Flux from 400 to 700 nm expressed in units of μmol/sec. This wavelength range has been identified as important to photosynthetic processes PPFD: Photosynthetic Photon Flux Density - Flux per unit area expressed in μmol/sec/m2 PBAR Flux( nm): Plant Biologically Active Radiation Flux - Plant Biologically Active Radiation Flux - Flux from 350 to 800 nm expressed in units of μmol/sec. Plants have photopigments other than chlorophyll that are sensitive to a wider range of wavelengths than chlorophyll. Radiant Efficiency: The ratio of light flux in watts to electrical input power in watts expressed in percent. Luminous Efficacy: The ratio of light flux in lumens to electrical input power in watts expressed in lm/w. PPF Efficacy: Photosynthetic Photon Flux - Flux from 400 to 700 nm expressed in units of μmol/sec PBAR Efficacy: The measured radiant power of the test item in units of watts from 350nm to 850 nm.

10 GROW WITH THE GOLD GROWING WITH THE SGS GOLDEN GLOW SPECTRA POWERS ENERGY TO YOUR PLANT CANOPY WITH A FULL SPECTRUM WAVELENGTH THAT CLOSELY MIMICS THE SUN. THIS ORANGE AND RED RICH PHOTONIC ENERGY CAN BE USED THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE GROW CYCLE FROM CLONES, TO VEG AND ESPECIALLY IN FLOWER WITHOUT NEGATIVE IMPACT. WHEN IT COMES TO FLOWERING CANNABIS INDOORS, THE SGS GOLDEN GLOW GETS RESULTS IN WEIGHT, TERPENES, TRICHOMES, BUD STRUCTURE AND THC %. SMART GROW WILL PUT OUR GOLDEN GLOW UP AGAINST ANY SPECTRA HPS OR LED. SGS ALSO HAS A BABY BLUE SPECTRA DESIGNED FOR CLONING AND VEG AND IS MORE COST EFFECTIVE THAN THE GOLDEN GLOW WHEN IT COMES TO PROPAGATION PROJECTS. TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THE BABY BLUE SPECTRA PLEASE CONTACT SMART GROW SYSTEMS. HTTP//:
