That would depend on three things:

# The amount of the Sun's radiation the plant is exposed to given your latitude, weather conditions and time of year - as well as the temperature. # The type of plant you use to test - different plants respond differently to different light frequencies. # The type of lamp you use to test - lamps use different compounds to produce light and so produce different spectrums of light. So some plants will benefit more from a particular light than others. All this considered the answer is both yes and no dependant on these points.

For instance:

A plant exposed to a low power lamp with the wrong light spectrum would be shoter than if it were grown outdoors at the equator.

A plant exposed to a high power lamp with the right light spectrum would be taller than a plant grown outdoors in Scotland during the winter.

Do plants grow taller in long grass?

Plants will generally grow taller in an environment with longer grass, as the longer grass provides support and protection for the plants to grow upwards without being stunted or damaged. Additionally, taller grass can provide more competition for sunlight, prompting plants to grow taller in order to access sunlight for photosynthesis.


What light do plants grow better in?

plants grow very well on the sunlight. it can prepare photosynthesis with this sunlight. it gets lots of vitamin-D in the sunlight


Why do plants grow taller in the dark?

plants grow taller in the dark because plant will grow until they find light, but will eventually die.


During succession what might become the limiting factor for sun loving mosses as taller plants begin to grow?

The limiting factor for sun-loving mosses as taller plants grow during succession would likely be reduced light availability. As taller plants shade the ground below them, the mosses may receive less sunlight, causing them to struggle to photosynthesize and grow. This reduced light can hinder the mosses' ability to compete with the taller plants for resources.


Do plants grow better with sunlight or artifical light?

plants grow better with sunlight because of photosynethsis


Do plants grow better in sunlight or dark?

plants vary dramatically as to how much sunlight would benefit them. some plants grow better in direct sunlight while others thrive shaded conditions. the fact is all plants need sunlight to produce food through photosynthesis. so the best answer is that the vast majority of plants grow better in sunlight rather than shade


Will plants grow toward sunlight or artificial light?

Plants will naturally grow toward sunlight as this provides them with the energy they need for photosynthesis. While plants can use artificial light for growth, they do not actively grow towards it like they do with sunlight.


Do plants grow faster in artificial light or sunlight?

sunlight cause that is its natural light


Will plants grow better under a black light or sunlight?

Sunlight


Why do plants race to grow tall?

Plants grow tall to compete for sunlight with neighboring plants in order to maximize photosynthesis. Taller plants have an advantage in accessing sunlight, so growing tall allows a plant to capture more light energy for photosynthesis and ultimately produce more energy for growth and reproduction.


Will a bean grow taller if it is put in the sunlight or if it is put in a room with a little light?

a bean can grow in little sunlight because it will still be able to live


Do hydroponics systems require sunlight to grow plants?

Yes, hydroponic systems do require sunlight or artificial light to grow plants because light is essential for photosynthesis, the process by which plants convert light energy into chemical energy to grow.
