The lighting angle of the greenhouse is indeed critical, as it directly affects the growth of plants and the environment in the greenhouse.
Generally speaking, the following factors need to be considered when determining the lighting angle:
geographical location
The latitude of the greenhouse will affect the angle of sunlight. At high latitudes, where the sun’s path is lower, the lighting angle may need to be adjusted.
seasonal changes
Taking into account seasonal changes, especially the lower sun path in winter, the lighting angle may need to be adjusted accordingly to ensure that enough sunlight enters the greenhouse.
crop requirements
Different crops have different light needs, some may need more sun while some may be more tolerant of shade. When determining the lighting angle, it is important to consider the specific crops being grown.
greenhouse structure
The design and structure of the greenhouse will also affect the determination of the lighting angle. For example, a dome-shaped greenhouse may be more susceptible to sunlight from different angles.
Shade facilities
If there are shading facilities, you also need to consider their impact on lighting and how to adjust the lighting angle of the greenhouse to accommodate these facilities.
Generally speaking, the best method is to combine the above factors. You may need to use some tools or software to simulate sunlight exposure at different times, so as to reasonably determine the lighting angle of the greenhouse to maximize the use of sunlight resources.
