What are Recommended Growing Areas and Hanging Heights for the Adjust-A-Wings Hellion VS3 LED Grow Lights?

With models in the Hellion VS3 range from 250W to 1000W you're covered from small propagation tents to bigger growing areas:

What is the Recommended Hanging Height for the Adjust-A-Wings Hellion VS3 LED Grow Light?

The Adjust-A-Wings Hellion VS3 LED grow lights are powerful and need to be hung at the correct height to avoid damaging your plants. The units work best when they're hung 45-60cm (18-24") above the plant canopy.

Garden tip: If height is an issue, dim the units to 75% and hang them 30-45 cm (12-18") above the plant canopy.

What are the Key Benefits of the Hellion Adjust-A-Wings Hellion VS3 LED Grow Lights?

The following points highlight the key benefits of the Adjust-A-Wings Hellion VS3 LED Grow Lights:

• Richer full spectrum
• Master your grow
• Multi-driver efficiency
• Deeper canopy penetration
• Dial in your own perfect lighting strategy
• External controllers available

Richer full spectrum

The range of Hellion VS3 LED light fixtures produce a rich baseline full spectrum by incorporating 3K and 5K white diodes with 660nm reds. Standard “full spectrum” LEDs often use just one white diode type mixed with 660nm reds and stop there.

The Adjust-A-Wings R&D team found improved results when they combined 3K + 5K + 660nm with far-red and UV-A diodes. This combination delivers a superior quality light, that works to drive increased levels of photosynthesis and promoting higher quality crops.

Master your grow

Hellion VS3 range of LEDs offers you a revolutionary, new level of photomorphogenic*** control. With separate dimming for veg, bloom and UV, it’s easy to dial in the perfect spectrum for compact and vigorous vegetative growth, reducing stretch during transition, and piling on weight plus colour and flavour in bloom.

***Photomorphogenesis is light-related development where plant growth patterns respond to the light spectrum. It's separate to photosynthesis, where light is used as a source of energy.

Multi-Driver Efficiency

Most LED fixtures use a single driver to run the entire fixture, which inevitably compromises fixture efficiency. The Hellion VS3 LEDs combine THREE separate drivers, which are dedicated to veg, bloom and UV diodes. Providing dedicated drives allows you to control the levels of each light spectrum allowing new levels of system efficiency.

Deeper canopy penetration

Adjust-A-Wings are known for their awesome canopy penetration! To help in this department, the VS3 range utilize own micro-reflectors that sits beneath each light bar. The micro-reflectors channel photons towards the canopy, helping to squeeze every ounce of efficiency out of the fixture. Micro-reflectors offer greater precision, focus and radiant intensity. They also remove the need for efficiency-sapping lenses.

Dial in your own perfect lighting strategy

All Hellion VS3 LEDs are equipped with three independent channels (Veg, Bloom and UV). The new-to-market channel mixers are totally user-definable and offer you total control over the spectral control and diversity you give to your plants:

• The Veg channel is full-spectrum and rich in the blue light spectrum
• The Bloom channel is full-spectrum and rich in the red + far red spectrum
• The UV channel provides UVA + near blue that, when ramped up in the last couple of weeks of flowering, works to improve colour, aroma and flavour by increasing essential oil/terpene production

External Analogue or Digital Controllers Available

If you want to control your Hellion VS3 from outside your grow room, then these controllers have you covered with the The Hellion LED Master VS III Controller and the Hellion LED Easy VS III Controller:

The Hellion LED Master VS3 Controller brings you a digital LED light control solution, offering an intuitive, touchscreen, multi-channel LED light controller. It brings you complete control over your indoor garden and Hellion VS3 LED light fixture. It features an easy-to-use, touchscreen interface with total flexibility. It also offers scalability for growers of all sizes.

The Hellion LED Easy VS3 Controller is an analogue multi-channel LED controller that takes the headwork out of optimising your garden. Simply power up, pick your photoperiod, dial in your perfect spectrum, and you’re good to grow!

Adjust-A-Wings Hellion VS3 LED Grow Light Take Spectral Quality to a New Level

The ability to tailor your LED light fixtures spectral output to suit the stage of your plant's development, means that you can use a single unit from start to finish. The fine spectral control you get with the Hellion VS3 LEDs, means you can achieve a lot more than with a conventional LED grow light. They give you total, user-defined control, so you can get more out of your plants.

Adjust-A-Wings Hellion VS3 LEDs Give You Full Spectral Control

The Hellion VS3's offer you the opportunity to learn and repeat the best lighting conditions for the individual plant types you’re growing. You may notice your plant responds well to a certain setting during veg or bloom, giving you better than expected results, verses what you've seen in the past? The VS3's offer you the ability to tailor the specific spectral requirements for individual plant types/strains. This could well result in you getting more bang for your buck! Couple the ability to tailor the full spectral output with your specialised (and repeatable) environmental and nutritional learnings and you could well see greatly improved results.

Total Control Over Plant Development

The Adjust-A-Wings Hellion VS3 LED Grow Light is for you if you want total control over your plant's development and keep a handle on costs. The ability to dial in the spectral output means you can provide the right light spectrum to influence: internodal spacing, stretch as well as boosting essential oil production in the last couple of weeks of bloom.

The following general settings highlight the R&D findings by Adjust-A-Wings during the development of the Hellion VS3 LED grow light. These settings cover you in a starter-for-ten, no previous knowledge situation. They act a baseline guide to get you started on your first grow:

Propagation Settings

During propagation, you'll gradually increase the intensity of the vegetative channel as your plants develop. Some UV can work to help strengthen seedlings and cuttings.

Vegetation

Blue-dominant spectrum helps to keep plants squat and bushy, which makes them easier to illuminate efficiently during the bloom phase.

Vegetative to Bloom

Combining lower bloom with higher UV and high veg can help to reduce unwanted internodal stretching. If some stretch is desirable, try cranking up the bloom by 20%.

Bloom

Increase the bloom after flowers begin to develop. The extra red and far-red promote branching and help to increase flower size and density.

Ripening/Finishing

During the final few weeks, additional UV can help to boost flavours, colours, and essential oils. If the ceiling height permits, try leaving all channels on full and raising the fixture by 5 -10 cm (2 – 4″).
