Black-out shade system
Black-out Shade System Info
What is Light Deprivation?
- It's a technique where growers manipulate the amount of light plants receive to control their flowering cycles.
- By using blackout shades, growers create artificial "nights" to induce flowering in short-day plants (like chrysanthemums, poinsettias) or extend the vegetative growth phase for long-day plants.
How Black-out Shade Systems Work in Greenhouses:
- Materials: Thick, opaque fabrics that provide complete light blockage. Often designed with multiple layers for maximum effectiveness.
- Automation: Frequently integrated with automatic systems to open and close the shades at precise intervals, ensuring accurate light control.
- Energy considerations: Can be combined with energy-saving curtains to help regulate temperature and humidity within the greenhouse.
Benefits of Using Blackout Shade Systems in Greenhouses
- Precise flowering control: Allows growers to time the flowering of specific crops for targeted market dates.
- Multiple harvests per year: By manipulating light cycles, growers can achieve more harvests in a single year.
- Crop quality: Improves uniformity and consistency of the crop.

The Black-Out Shade System is Ideal for Various Crops such as Cannabis / Marijuana
The Black-out Shade system allows your greenhouse to control night and day by totally blocking out incoming sunlight from outdoors. This allows an added level of control that will allow maximal growing conditions for various crops.
