A System for the Passive Modification of the Wavelength of Light in a Greenhouse
| Challenge: | Innovation | | Category: | Intermediate | | Region: | | | City: | , | | School: | | | Abstract: | Plants grow at a variety of rates when exposed to different wavelengths and durations of light. This innovation is a passive system, designed in a way that it can be programmed to control the specific wavelengths of light and duration of light exposure on the plant. This system attempts to tailor the growth cycle of a greenhouse crop in a controlled and energy efficient way. |
