Generally, plants do not grow well in green light as the green portion of white light is reflected (this is why plants appear green), if a plant was subject to only green light it wouldn't take in as much light energy because it would be reflected, therefore, photosynthesis would not be carried out as efficiently as a plant subjected to white light.
What else can I help you with?
Why would most plants not grow very well under only green light?
Most plants will grow in white light, as it is closer to blue light. Blue light is the light emitted from the sun for the majority of the day. Green light has a very small place on the spectrum and therefore does not appear much. However, if the plant is hardy, it may grow in any light or even no light.
Can a plant grow up to three inches when it is grown under green light?
No, a plant cannot grow at all with a green light Plants use red blue and some yellows to produce photosynthesis Green is what is reflected so it is what you see. Plants do not use green light at all.
Do plants grow taller in green light or white light?
All the colours of the rainbow have different wavelengths. For example, violet has short wavelengths, while red has long wavelengths. Visible light appears as white light because it is a mixture of all the colours. Also, chlorophyll is the principal pigment involved in photosynthesis. Chlorophyll absorbs all the different coloured wavelengths, but leaves green as the colour it reflects and as the colour we see.Therefore, white light is best to grow plants under because green light doesn't do much of anything for photosynthesis.
Why do plants respond more to this type of light?
because some wavelengths are more simliar to the ones the sun emits and natural light is best for growing plants in which case the more similar they are to the sun's wavelengths they are, the better it is for the plants.
Why don't plants grow better in artificial light?
Plants have chloroplasts in them, this gives the distinct green colour we are familiar with. It also REFLECTS green light, hence you need other wavelengths of visible light for the plant to be able to grow.

Should plants grow better in the red light or the green light?
RED do not try green it will not turn out as well
How many inches green beans grow in a week with red light?
what red light does to green bean plants
Can a plant grow up to three inches when it is grown under green light?
No, a plant cannot grow at all with a green light Plants use red blue and some yellows to produce photosynthesis Green is what is reflected so it is what you see. Plants do not use green light at all.
What colors do plants need to grow?
Red and blue light is absorbed from the Sun. Green light is reflected off the plant.
Would plants still be green if there was no sun?
If there were no Sun, and no other source of radiant energy, the plants (and the entire planet) would quickly freeze. And since the color of an object is determined by the color of the light that is reflected by the object, with no light there would be no color, and everything would be black. If we grow plants under artificial light on a space station, then the light on the space station (even if artificial) would be the same kinds of light that we humans prefer, so the plants on the space station would continue to be green.

How does the colour of light affect plant growth?
Plants are green because the reflect green light. They do not use green light, they use red light to make food. Some plastic mulches are red to reflect red light onto plants to make them grow more.
Predict whether a plant would grow better when exposed to green light or to blue light. Explain.?
Plants generally grow better when exposed to blue light compared to green light. This is because blue light is more effectively absorbed by chlorophyll, the pigment responsible for photosynthesis, promoting energy production and growth. Green light is mostly reflected by plants, which is why they appear green, and is less effective in driving the photosynthetic process. Therefore, blue light provides more energy for photosynthesis, leading to better growth outcomes.
Why do plants respond more to this type of light?
because some wavelengths are more simliar to the ones the sun emits and natural light is best for growing plants in which case the more similar they are to the sun's wavelengths they are, the better it is for the plants.
Do plants grow better with green artificial light red artificail light or natural sunlight?
Natural sunlight.
Can a bean grow with different color light?
Yes, beans can grow under different colored lights, but the type of light can affect the growth and development of the plant. Plants typically respond best to blue and red light wavelengths for photosynthesis and growth, while green light is less effective. It's important to provide the right balance of light colors for optimal bean growth.
