UK: Fairweather’s turns pink with new LED lights
Initial results of tissue culture plants weaned from the laboratory in week 40 are very encouraging with plants establishing very evenly under lights that extend the day to 14 hours with 50umol of light intensity. This will enable the nursery to produce one or 2 more crops from the same space during the year. Plants receiving less intense lighting on adjacent beds are also responding so they are experimenting with different light intensities.
The pink glow from the glasshouses attracted the attention of a neighbour who questioned whether the nursery had gone into marijuana production. "The answer was no, but then it might be more profitable than growing garden plants!"
