LED Grow Light for Floriculture

Various horticultural and medicinal plants contribute to human health. Plants have a variety of photoreceptors, so nutrients are mainly affected by cryptochrome that is stimulated by the UV-A/blue region of the spectrum and activates specific defense reactions (Fig.7). When a defense reaction is activated, plants consume energy in such a way as to produce secondary metabolites, such as vitamin C, anthocyanins and phenolic compounds that are valuable for human consumption.
