Light is one of the main signals detected by plants that influence plant growth, development, and function. The light features that influence plants are the photoperiod, light intensity, and spectral composition. Manipulating light intensity and spectrum to obtain better plant growth and quality has become a popular research object in recent years. Here we describe the usage of the spectrometer Lighting Passport Pro to determine the impact of light intensity and share of individual waves in its spectrum in environment-controlled plant production systems on the growth, development, and soluble carbohydrate and phenolic synthesis of common buckwheat.
Keywords: LEDs; Light spectrum; Noninvasive method; Photosynthesis; Wavelengths.
