About Chlorophysics

It all started in Denver, Colorado, back in early 2016. I was surrounded by the hum of city life and mountains on the horizon, but my mind was deep in the world of electronics and artificial lighting. One night, sitting in my room under the glow of LEDs, a question sparked—

If LEDs can create over 16 million colors, which colors help plants grow the best?

I didn’t know much about the science of photosynthesis back then. But I knew two things: plants live on light, and LEDs could produce it with surgical precision—exact wavelengths, pure color, and minimal energy waste.

That single thought became an obsession. I reached out to a local college, where a biology professor shared a study showing how human activity has actually thickened our antmosphere and continues to do so—blocking critical photons from reaching the Earth’s surface. That’s when it hit me: we’re losing part of the photosynthetic spectrum that feeds our planet. If we can’t rely on the sky, we need to rebuild its light ourselves.

That was the birth of Chlorophysics—a fusion of chlorophyll and light physics. My mission was bold: to recreate the power of the sun indoors and help plants grow just as fast—or even faster—than they would outdoors.

I knew from my background working with LEDs that heat is their greatest enemy. So I began experimenting, designing, and re-engineering ways to keep them perfectly cool—at their optimal operating temperature—so they could hold their exact color spectrum and brightness over time. The result? A light that delivers true, consistent sunlight quality with minimal degradation and maximum plant performance.

I found myself noticing how nature itself uses color—the deep reds and pinks of fall sunsets, the cool blues of spring mornings. Those shifts aren’t just beautiful; they’re signals. They tell plants when to bloom, when to fruit, when to rest. Understanding that rhythm—and capturing it in a controllable light spectrum—became the soul of my invention.

But like any story worth telling, there was a pause. Around that time, I took on a full-time leadership role in the express car wash industry, a career that eventually brought me to Jacksonville, Florida. I poured myself into that world, learning about systems, efficiency, and operations. Chlorophysics had to sit on the back burner for a while—but it was never forgotten.

Years later, that same spark reignited. With more experience, knowledge, and determination than ever before, I returned to the vision. Today, Chlorophysics stands patent pending (expecting decision from USPTO late 2027), with a light that’s more advanced than I ever imagined back in that Denver apartment.

The latest version features programmability, allowing users to wirelessly control and fine-tune light spectrums to match each stage of plant growth—without sacrificing brightness or efficiency. Additional exclusive patent-pending technologies push the limits even further, optimizing every photon for maximum photosynthetic absorption.

What began as one curious question under a simple LED glow has grown into a mission: to harness the power of light itself—to grow life, faster and better than ever before.

Happy Growing,
