Plants grow thinner in the dark due to a phenomenon called etiolation. In the absence of light, they elongate their stems and leaves to reach for available light sources, resulting in a spindly appearance. This adaptation helps them maximize their chances of finding light for photosynthesis, but it compromises their overall structural integrity and health. Without sufficient light, they cannot produce energy effectively, leading to weaker growth.

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.
Which plant will grow bigger in the dark or light?
Plants grown in the light typically grow bigger than those in the dark because they need light for photosynthesis, which is crucial for their growth and development. Light provides energy for plants to produce food, enabling them to grow taller and have more leaves. Without light, plants tend to become weak and spindly due to the lack of energy source.
