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.


What color of light would probably be the least helpful for this plant's growth?

White light would be universal, but if you had to choose a color, and the color of the plant is green, then green light would not help it photosynthesize the easiest, because green light is reflected from these plants. Just like red light would be reflected from red plants, it probably wouldn't be the best to use


Can any light make a plant grow?

According to what I have researched most light can make a plant grow, it just depends on the wavelength that the light is flowing. Carl Gelenye has done some work with different wave lengths of light for plants growth and found the violet works the best and blue is the worst.


When to start pruning your marajuna plants?

It is best to start pruning your marijuana plants during the vegetative stage, usually around 3-4 weeks after germination. Start by removing any yellowing or dead leaves, then gradually prune excess leaves to promote better air circulation and light penetration as the plants grow. Avoid pruning during flowering to prevent stress and reduce the risk of affecting bud development.


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.

What are the best low light fluorescent bulbs for indoor plants?

The best low light fluorescent bulbs for indoor plants are typically those labeled as "cool white" or "warm white" with a color temperature of around 3000-4000 Kelvin. These bulbs provide the right spectrum of light for plant growth in low light conditions.
