ABSTRACT
Plants are absolutely important for sustainable development
...
In this study, the researchers
examine the observational findings on how vegetables grow indoors, including artificial
light as an alternative to daylight
...
According to several organic fertilizers, indoor plants are cultivated underneath
full-spectrum lamps, which provide a mix of cool and warm illumination that mimics the
natural visible light
...
The researchers observe the height and the leaf pigmentation of the tomato
plants within 2-3 weeks
...
The researchers used three different pots,
wherein all of the pots were applied with tomato seed and opened the LED lights up to
12-16 hours a day, watering the plants every morning with the same amount of 100 mL
...
The findings
demonstrate that the tomato plants that were used with LED lights did indeed help the
plants to grow in their height and hue
