  • METHOD, LIGHTING SYSTEM AND GREENHOUSE
    Publication number: 20200107504
    Abstract: A method for illuminating plants and/or planting beds with a mobile light system may include moving the light system toward the plant as a function of a movement time plan. The method may further include irradiating the plant by means of the mobile light system. The mobile light system may include at least one radiation source for irradiating at least one plant and a holding device having at least one drive for changing position. The drive and the radiation source(s) may be controllable by means of a control unit.
