Commercial Medical Marijuana Dispensary Outfits

Colorado Springs, CO August 10, 2012

The Tree Of Wellness dispensary, located in Colorado Springs, took a big step toward a more efficient grow operation by implementing Prosource Worldwide's LED grow lights in their commercial grow warehouse.

With over 1,000 square feet of growing space, the Tree Of Wellness dispensary is able to save 50% in electricity costs by operating the entire operation using LEDs. The savings is driven by two factors. First, there is a power reduction in the lights themselves as LED grow lights require only a fraction of the power that traditional high intensity discharge (HID) lighting does for the same yield. Second, LEDs run much cooler which greatly decreases the need for air conditioning to keep the grow space at the proper temperature.

All marijuana products from Tree of Wellness are 100% organic and are grown from seed or clone all the way to harvest exclusively using LEDs. They grow over 25 different strains of indicas ? such as Mr. Nice and Skywalker, sativas ? such as Super Lemon Haze and Sublime, and hybrids like AK-47.

The dispensary is well known for supplying top-quality, affordable medicine. Customers rave about the potency, taste, and consistent quality of the product grown under LED.

From a business perspective, making the switch from HID lighting to LED grow lights was simply a matter of economics. Even though LEDs are more expensive than their HID counterparts, the cost to outfit this large medical marijuana operation was comparable once other factors were taken into consideration. Massive air conditioning units, ballasts, and upgraded electrical service are not needed when growing with LED.

Tree of Wellness has been growing with LED grow lights for over two years now and the savings keep adding up. Cost savings were immediate after switching from HID lighting and a full return on investment came in under a year.
