LED lighting systems produce dual-band color spectrum and generate low heat. They are anticipated to witness significant growth over the forecast period. Hydroponic system is a method of growing plants without soil. A hydroponic system eliminates the need for pesticides and artificial ripening agents and helps in producing nutritionally-rich vegetables.
