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.
What does the length of night or dark periods control in flowering plants?
The length of night or dark periods controls the process of photoperiodism in flowering plants, which determines their flowering time. Plants can be classified as short-day, long-day, or day-neutral based on their flowering response to varying lengths of light and darkness. In short-day plants, flowering is triggered when nights are longer, while long-day plants require longer daylight periods to initiate flowering. This mechanism allows plants to synchronize their reproductive cycles with seasonal changes for optimal growth and seed production.
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
