JYOTHSNA J., SURAJ LUTHRA AND AYISHA SIDHIKA M.

Abstract

LEDs have become the predominant future lighting system for greenhouse crop production. The LEDs are popularly applied in photoperiod lighting, vegetable transplant production, graft-healing, greenhouse production and quality enhancement. As the LED technology advances, they improve the quality of vegetable transplants and produces. The spectral control reduce production costs and increase the value of specialty crops with promoted flavor and sensory traits. The Horticultural LED will continue to grow more hardware configurations and control protocols. LEDs provide comprehensive tool for plant environment for manipulation of plant function.
