Supplementary Blue and Red LED Narrowband Wavelengths Improve Biomass Yield and Nutrient Uptake in Hydroponically Grown Basil

Supplementary Blue and Red LED Narrowband Wavelengths Improve Biomass Yield and Nutrient Uptake in Hydroponically Grown Basil

Light emitting diodes (LEDs) can produce a wide range of narrowband wavelengths with varying intensities. Previous studies have demonstrated that supplemental blue (B) and red (R) wavelengths from LEDs impact plant development, physiology, and morphology. High-pressure sodium (HPS) lighting systems...
