How to Optimize Light Spectrums for Each Stage of Plant Growth
As your plants transition into the vegetative stage, they require more energy to support the rapid growth of leaves and stems. This stage benefits from a mix of blue and red light, with a higher proportion of blue to red (around a 60:40 ratio).
Redefining PAR: The Impact of Far-Red Photons on Photosynthesis and Horticultural Lighting
The effectiveness of far-red photons in driving photosynthesis means that technologies utilizing these photons, such as downshifting luminescent materials and fixtures that include far-red, should be reevaluated for their effectiveness as plant growth spectrum providers.
Uncovering Spectral Signatures in a Pecan Orchard
Multispectral cameras capture spectral signatures much like a thermometer measures the temperature of the human body. Changes in plant reflectance indicate stress, but additional information is required to identify the cause.
