HLG Success Story at Method Grow
Record-Breaking Yields and Energy Savings: Method Grow’s Success with HLG LED Lights
Join us as we visit Method Grow in Stillwater, OK, and hear from President & Final Boss, Dan Husted, about how Horticulture Lighting Group has transformed their facility. One thing that stands out about Dan and Method Grow is their love for data. They meticulously track every metric imaginable, all in pursuit of growing finer flowers. After years of using High-Pressure Sodium (HPS) and Metal Halide fixtures, Dan and his team knew it was time to explore the potential of LED grow lights. As Dan explains in the video, Method Grow tested over 20 different brands before discovering HLG. The results were clear—HLG was the right choice.
Today, Method Grow is equipped with 547 Scorpion Diablo X fixtures and 152 Scorpion Diablos across both of their facilities. The switch to HLG LED lights has taken their cultivation to new heights, setting a harvest record on their very first run under the new fixtures. Not only did they achieve a 35-40% increase in yields, but they also saved over 30% on their electricity bill, proving that HLG lights deliver both growth and efficiency.
The data-driven approach that Method Grow embodies aligns perfectly with the performance of HLG’s technology. Their plants have shown significant improvements, with thicker stems, better structure, and healthier tops—all while maintaining the same genetics, nutrients, and environmental conditions. The consistent and stable environment created by HLG’s LED fixtures has also eased the strain on their HVAC systems, reducing energy costs further and creating a quieter, more controlled grow space.
Initially skeptical of the bold claims made by LED companies, Dan’s team quickly realized that HLG's promises of lower energy consumption and higher yields were true. The facility’s electricity costs dropped by nearly a third, while yields soared. With HLG fixtures powering their operation, Method Grow continues to thrive, showing that the right technology can transform both productivity and profitability.
