Abstract: Systems and methods for an intracanopy horticultural lighting fixture. In aspects, a horticultural luminaire has an edgelit lightguide or optical conduit extending from a housing with its major dimension extending along longitudinal axis L, and one or more endcaps coupled to respective lateral edges, endcaps being convex curved about one or more axes transverse the longitudinal axis to prevent catch points. The endcap can be coupled to the housing to hinder separation of the lightguide. In another aspect a horticultural luminaire has an edgelit lightguide generating an output having downwardly directed peaks at about +/- 30 degrees from vertical. Light output is preferably batwing shaped and symmetric. Another aspect provides a method for intracanopy lighting having an entirely planar optical conduit, a major extent of the optical conduit disposed along its longitudinal axis (L), and supporting the optical conduit, preferably its entirety, below an upper plant canopy.

Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein describe systems and methods associated with light mounting systems. Embodiments may include lighting shelves that are configured to be mounted to a fixed structure, such as to a wall or supports within a room via a cantilever design that is mounted to strut channels. The lighting shelves may be anchored at only a single end to the strut channels, and the lighting shelves may protrude away from the strut channels. The lighting shelves may have a sufficient width and length to cover an entire region of interest below the lighting shelves, which may enable to lighting shelves to uniformly distribute light to plants.
