Innexo B.V. has announced a partnership with lighting specialist FOHSE.
Together, the two companies will enable the cannabis industry to accelerate the development of advanced spectral seed sorting algorithms. As part of this program, Innexo BV leverages FOHSE's lighting technology and engineering knowhow in its new phenotyping room. This room, including the installed FOHSE Cobra Pro Greenhouse lights, will be unveiled at Innexo's next Acceleration Day on October 3rd.

Using light science to elevate research
This research initiative brings together FOHSE's industry-leading lighting technology — including its newly launched Under Canopy Light (UCL) — with Innexo's state-of-the-art testing and genetic phenotyping facilities in the Netherlands. The goal for FOHSE: to develop data-backed lighting strategies that drive improvements in cannabinoid yield, terpene expression, and overall plant vitality.
"Partnering with Innexo allows us to validate and push the boundaries of what precision lighting can achieve in cannabis cultivation," said Ben Arnet, President of FOHSE. "By combining our engineering capabilities with Innexo's world-class scientific infrastructure, we're setting a new benchmark for evidence-based grow strategies."
Focus areas of the research program
The collaboration is set to span a 12-month study period, with the results expected to inform product development and enhance grower best practices. The areas of investigation will include the impact of under canopy lighting on cannabinoid and terpene profiles, light spectrum tuning across flowering phases, and energy optimization in high-density cultivation. Additionally, the study will explore photomorphogenic responses across multiple cannabis cultivars.
"Our team is excited to partner with FOHSE to equip part of our new phenotyping department at Innexo," said Dominique van Gruisen, CEO at Innexo. "Lighting remains one of the most potent tools in the cultivator's arsenal, and by studying it systematically, we'll be able to optimize not only plant output but also sustainability. This next level of lighting control, provided by the incredible team at FOHSE, can emulate the conditions of our client's cultivation environments perfectly. This is key to creating solid seed sorting algorithms that will change the future of the cannabis industry, and gain a ton of insight into different lighting strategies and their impact on different cultivars in seed form."
