The Aries LED grow light from Fohse is a direct response to the overwhelming demand from the home grow community for a fixture that delivers commercial-grade performance in a manageable, efficient format. Inspired by the groundbreaking success of the A3i—Fohse’s flagship model and the most powerful commercial LED grow light on the market—the Aries brings advanced lighting technology into the hands of individual growers who demand more from their cultivation setups.
Historically, early-generation LED grow lights failed to meet the needs of cannabis growers due to poor output and inadequate canopy penetration. The Aries overcomes these limitations through a combination of high PAR output and precision-focused illumination. At the heart of its performance are custom-designed polycarbonate focal lenses that concentrate photosynthetically active radiation directly onto your canopy. Further elevating its effectiveness, the Aries features swiveling light bars—an exclusive advantage—that allow for cross-illumination, enhancing light penetration not just to the canopy directly below, but to neighboring plots as well.
Traditional bulb-style grow lights come with a host of hazards, including the risk of burns, frequent bulb replacements, and excessive heat output. The Aries eliminates these issues completely. Unlike outdated plasma or HID lights, the Aries has no infrared spike in its spectrum, significantly reducing heat stress on your plants and protecting delicate trichomes and foliage from thermal damage. This feature alone improves plant health and yield potential.
Built for real-world growing conditions, the Aries is engineered to withstand the harshest environments. It is sealed against dust, pests such as mites and aphids, and fungal spores, ensuring long-term durability and low maintenance. With an IP rating that allows for submersion up to one meter in water, the Aries is as rugged as it is refined.
To support the complete cannabis growth cycle, the Aries includes three custom spectral settings tailored for different growth stages: vegetative, early flower, and late flower. These modes ensure optimal lighting conditions at each phase, helping growers achieve consistent, high-quality harvests. The fixture is best suited for a standard 4x4 grow plot, and the swiveling light bars offer flexibility for growers to customize coverage and uniformity based on their unique space. With a PPFD meter, you can fine-tune the angles and intensity to suit your crop’s exact needs.
Controlling the Aries is simple with the Fohse Central Control module, which is required for operation. This controller allows you to manage up to 100 fixtures from a single interface and lets you adjust light intensity from 30% to 100%. Whether you're dialing in the ideal light level for vegetative growth or finishing your flowers three feet from the fixture on the “Autumn” spectrum setting, the system gives you complete control—without the hassle of manually adjusting fixture height. Of course, the ideal setup may vary depending on your strain, medium, watering method, nutrient delivery system, and environmental controls, but with the Aries, you’re equipped with the flexibility to tailor everything with precision.
Installation is user-friendly, and the learning curve is short, even for those new to high-intensity LED cultivation. Fohse supports every grower with access to experienced cultivation professionals who have successfully used Aries fixtures. Whether you’re a seasoned grower or just getting started, the Aries LED grow light puts professional results within reach.
