Why Plants will not photosynthesis in the dark?

Actually plants do grow in the dark! However, they still need sunlight to capture energy in order to grow. Plants that grow in the dark are known as CAM plants. CAM plants are often found in the dessert and include cacti, cycads, lycopods, an pineapples. They capture sunlight during they day and produce carbohydrates at night. Carbohydrates are the building blocks the plants use for structural material and stored energy.


Does plants start to loose water if kept in dark?

A plant will lose water less quickly in the dark than it will in bright sunshine or heat, however it will still lose some water. So if you are thinking of going away and hoping that leaving your pot plants in the dark will mean you don't need to water them, then it won't work. The other problem is that plants need light to stay alive, and they would suffer and die if you leave them in the dark for too long. Hope this helps

Can you keep indoor plants healthy if you will let them stay inside your house all the time?

Yes you can but it really depends on the type of plant you are trying to keep inside the house. Most of what is kept as houseplants are tropical plants. This is because the temperatures where these plants do well is the same temperatures where most people maintain within their home. Sixty to 80 degrees are good temperature ranges for many types of plants so plants tend to do well within the normal home as long as they are supplied with the necessary water and nutrition to go along with a good temperature range.


Can plants germinate without sunlight?

Yes. Tried this experiment and the plants in the dark germinate and grew faster than the plants in the sunlight. But, if you leave it in the dark for too long, its leaves would turn yellow from the lack of chlorophyll and the plants would eventually die. (I tried with green bean plants, so not sure if other plants can) By the way, you will have to make sure that the plants in the dark have enough air and water, if not it will probably die before germinating.
