Growth lamp light radiation and its effect on rose growth in the greenhouse
Light is one of the key factors for photosynthesis, growth and flowering of plants. In greenhouses, providing sufficient and quality light is essential for the growth of cut roses. The use of Grow Light is very effective, especially in areas with little natural light or in seasons when light intensity decreases.
1. The importance of light for rose growth
- Photosynthesis: The production of carbohydrates to provide the energy necessary for plant growth.
- Growth and flowering regulation: Specific wavelengths of light (such as red and blue) have a direct effect on stem, branch, leaf and flowering development.
- Photoperiod control: Photoperiod is effective in stimulating flowering and regulating the plant's growth cycle.
2. Characteristics of grow light for roses
Growth lamps must produce light with the appropriate spectrum for photosynthesis and growth. Sunlight contains different wavelengths, but for plants, the blue (400-500 nm) and red (600-700 nm) wavelengths are more important.
Types of light used:
- Blue light: Stimulates vegetative growth (leaf and stem growth), increases plant density and reduces excessive stem height.
- Red light: Stimulates flowering, improves flower quality and increases flower size.
- Full white light (Full Spectrum): Simulates natural sunlight and is suitable for all stages of growth.
3. Effect of growth lamp light on rose growth and flowering
A. Vegetative growth (Leaf and Stem Development):
- Increase photosynthesis and production of nutrients for growth.
- Strengthen stems and reduce abnormal elongation.
- Improve leaf color (darker green due to increased chlorophyll).
B. Flowering:
- Increase the number of flowers produced.
- Improve the color and quality of the petals.
- Accelerate flowering time if sufficient red light is used.
C. Flower durability:
- Reducing light stress and increasing the quality of the stem and leaves leads to a longer shelf life of the flowers in the environment after harvest.
