This Is What Happens When You Try To Grow A Plant In Artificial Light

The video discusses the differences between sunlight and artificial light in plant growth. Sunlight provides more photons and beneficial red and blue light, while artificial lights, especially LEDs, are being optimized for indoor growth. LEDs are efficient in emitting red and blue light, crucial for photosynthesis and plant processes. Research shows that different light spectrums affect plant growth and metabolite production. Technological advancements in LED lighting could improve indoor cultivation, addressing food scarcity. However, excessive artificial light can harm plants, and natural sunlight remains ideal.
