Find the right distance and coverage

Highlands are made with either a narrow or wide reflector. Each reflector determines how the light travels and the amount of coverage the Highland provides your plants. A narrow reflector produces a narrow and focused beam perfect for plants at a distance or higher light plants. A wide reflector produces a wider and less focused beam that works well for large spaces or lower light plants.

Need more light?

At the end of the day, there is no need to be worried about light coverage no matter which reflector you choose. You can easily meet the lighting requirements of any plant or living wall by pointing two or more Highlands at the same location. For example, two Highlands pointed at the same spot will increase the lighting conditions from low to moderate, or from moderate to high.
