Faven R6 120 Watt 46 Inch Under-Canopy LED Grow Light Bar, 277 Volt - Pack of 4 LEDs With No Extension Cords

Boost Your Yield and Crop Health By Lighting Smarter, Not Harder with the Faven Under-Canopy Lights!

These are lights designed to sit beneath plant canopies where top lights can’t quite reach. Faven’s under canopy lights are the best way to improve the yield and health of your plants with minimal increase to operational costs. Made to supplement overhead light installations, this under canopy light offers a low maintenance way to:

• Increase flowering
• Give your plants more consistent growth and color
• Increase concentration of THC and some terpene compounds
• And decreases labor costs by eliminating the need for under clearing "lollipopping"

NOTE: Faven Lighting Under-Canopy LED Grow Light Bars are only sold in quantities of 4

**Read Carefully** Faven offers two different spectrums based on the type of top lighting being used inside grow rooms or greenhouses - this is called "Spectrum Balancing." The goal is to supplement additional spectrums and wavelengths that may be lacking in current lighting layouts. This gives cultivators greater control over the quality of the product being produced. While adding Favens to your facility will increase yield, increasing the product quality is also a top priority.

R6 lights (60% red) compliment HID top lights that are high in ROY.

R8 lights (80% red) compliment full spectrum LED top lights.

How many lights do I need?
Convert your bench length to inches, then divide by 46". That is how many lights each row can support. These lights are a modular system giving you the flexibility to set these up in whichever configuration works best for you! Not seeing a configuration that fits your grow? Give us a call today at 888-815-9763 and one of experts will help you get what you need!

Example: 14' bench length, 3 plants wide
14' x 12" = 168", 168" ÷ 46" = 3 lights (round down)
3 x 2 (available rows in-between plants) = 6 lights

How many power cords and extensions do I need? Each bench requires at least one power cord. Depending on your total lights, you can daisy chain your rows with an extension. If you exceed max daisy-chain #, you will need two or more power cords per bench.

Faven LED light bars can be electrically connected end-to-end or with extension "jumper" cables. See the installation manual for detailed instructions.

Voltage	Max # of connected	Current
120	10	1.0A
240	17	0.50A
277	20	0.43A

Which Controllers can I use to control the lights?
Currently, TrolMaster is the best option for controlling both dimminig and on/off fuctions. One TrolMaster can control up to 155-160, with ine LMA-14 lighting adapter needed for every 75-80 lights.

Compatible Controllers:

• TrolMaster Hydro-X, Hydro-X PLUS, and Hydro-X PRO
• Vivosun from Amazon

Uncompatible Controllers:

• Gavita
• Luxx
• Spectre

How low can you dim intensity?
Faven units can dim to to about 35-40% at their lowest setting. It is best to utilize this function in both early and late flower. In early flower, you will want to slowly increase intensity starting day 1 of flower and aim to be at 100% intensity by day 14/15 of flower. This eliminates any extra light stress plants experience when introducing under canopy lighting. In late flower, reducing intensity will help protect the quality of the flower closest to the lights. Faven recommends starting this when plants are about two weeks from harvest. Reducing ri 60-80% is a good rule of thumb.

How to support the Faven light fixture?
Currently, the cheapest and best option us to use standard plastic pots that have been turned upside down. While this may be seen as "too cheap", it is often the best option for easy and fast setup and removal post-harvest. Faven is working to produce leg attachments that will integrate with the lights. In the meantime, pots or PVC brackets should be used to support each joint between lights.

What is the best height to install units?
Each grow will have a different optimal height based on how large of plants they grow. Ideally, lights are installed to sit above the container (bboth pots and rockwool) to mitigate any light being directed at the substrate. For example: if you grow in 2-gallon pots, then a 2-gallon pot flipped upside down will be the perfect height for those plants; if you are limited on table space, stack 1-gallon pots on top of each other until you reach your desired height. Faven is working to produce leg attachments that integrate with the Faven Lights.

How do I plug the accessory wire into the controller?
Faven units come witha female RJ11 port (phone jack) with a waterproof cap to maintain our IP66 waterproof rating. Inside, you will find an RJ11 piece plugged into the port. Remove this piece and replace it with an RJ11 cord (phone line) that will connect to the controller.

NOTE: If the RJ11 piece, that comes inside the accessory wire, is inserted while Faven's power cord is plugged in, lights will stay on until the power cord is unplugged. If the RJ11 piece is removed, the lights will turn off. Only until the RJ11 piece is replaced with the RJ11 cord attached to the controller will the lights function properly based on the setting of the controler.

Under-Clearing
Pherhaps the biggest change to a typical cultivation workflow will be the reduction of under-clearing, also known as "Skirtting" or "Lollipopping". By leaving lower branches and bud sites intact, you will be able to increase your usable canopy depth 2-3'. Small branches and bud sites that site below the light source can be removed. Faven recommends leaving as much foliage on the plant untuuk "Strech" or "Stack" is complete. This will allow the grower to accurately see what wukk turn into usable product and what can be removed. This process is best done between days 22-26 of flower.

Deleafing
Deleafing for light penetration is not a new concept. However, Under-Canopy application adds another factor tho think about when removing leaves. The overall goal is to remove just enough leaves to create a mix of light in the middle of the canopy from both top and bottom light fixtures. This approach blends the two main schools of thought widely practiced in cultivation: The dead strip (no fan leaves) and leaving as many leaves as possible. While removing too many leaves can be detrimental to the photosynthetic ability of the plant, not taking enough leaves blocks light from reaching bud sites located in the middle canopy. It's a balance that will likely take a run or two fully dial in and standardized.

Planting Density
The third difference that is often overlooked when adding under-canopy to your cultivation is planting density. While density greatly varies across the industry, a constant that has been observed is the benifit of reducing plant count when addeding under canopy lighting. The decrease will be different for every facility. Lowering plant count promotes more air flow and keeps bottom branches from blocking under-canopy lights. Instead of removing leaves to improve air flow and upward mobility of under-canopy light, reducing plants achieves the same result. Less plants also means reduction in labor from the nursery through post production. Reducing plant count can be scary thought, we recommend starting with a single trail table and compairing results. In almost all cases, lower plant density outweighed control tables.
