Recommendations

Plants can be divided into long day plants, short day plants and intermediate plants.

Plant photosynthesis has its own regular pattern. Generally speaking, during the day, plants absorb solar

energy to produce photosynthesis. At night, plants exchange carbon dioxide and oxygen under respiration.

Long sunshine plants --- during plant growth and development, flower buds can be formed only when the

number of light hours per day exceeds the limit (14-17 hours). The longer the illumination time, the earlier

the flowering. Examples: spinach, radish, cabbage.

Short sunshine plants --- during plant growth and development, 8-12 hours of sunshine every day. Examples:

grass, chrysanthemum

Cover with transparent cap (3).

Put the assembled lamp in transparent

cover (3) in accordance with the lamp

voltage supply. Press the black button

to switch on.

Intermediate plants --- in the process of plant growth and development, there are no strict requirements on

the length of light. Examples: rose, cucumber, aubergine and pepper.
