RED Horticulture strawberry light treatments on root development

A 2022 season building on 2021’s momentum

When RED first crossed paths with Pierrick L’Eost in 2021, the producer from Brittany had 1,500m2 of lit surface dedicated to Gariguette. Following a very successful season with +25% yield and up to +50% brix rate, Pierrick doubled his lit surface in 2022 to reach 3,000m2.

The LED lighting solution used remained the same: TAURUS 300 lighting managed by the SOLSTICE application. Pierrick went into production on February 10th with initial brix levels between 8 and 10 which rose to 11 – 12 after 3 weeks of production.

"The 2022 season objectives are being met. I was able to reap the benefits of the RED light solution: sustainability of labor, fruit quality and yield."

Major growth starting in 2023.

Pierrick looked ahead to the 2023 season when he would double his total production area to 2.6 hectares. He hoped to accompany this investment with an expansion of the lit area, which would then represent 30% of the total heated area.
