Claim:
1. A grow light system for producing a deep penetrating source of light for growing plants, the grow light system comprising a hood light fixture having an outer wall structure configured to support the hood light fixture in a desired lighting position, the outer wall structure including side panels extending between opposing end panels, the hood light fixture including a light opening configured to allow passage of an associated deep penetrating light for growing an associated plant, the hood light fixture further including at least one inner reflective panel configured to reflective light, the at least one inner reflective panel having a first inner light reflecting panel and a second inner light reflecting panel and the first and second inner light reflective panels being on either side of a light fixture axis, the hood light fixture further including a first light source extending along a first light source axis and being generally parallel to the first inner light reflecting panel and a second light source extending along a second light source axis and being generally parallel to the second inner light reflecting panel, the first and second light source axes being generally parallel to one another and parallel to the light fixture axis, the first inner light reflecting panel having a first base edge at or near the light opening and extending inwardly from the light opening and the second inner light reflecting panel having a second base edge at or near the light opening and extending inwardly from the light opening, the first and second light inner light reflecting panels and the light opening having a generally triangular cross-section configuration transverse to the fixture axis wherein the first and second light reflective panels are oriented at a grow light angle from one another, the grow light angle being between 40 and 80 degrees, wherein the first and second light sources are angled relative to one another by the grow light angle and have a central gap therebetween.
