PPF Tech FR20 PRO FS7 Far Red 2 Pack
PPF Tech FR20 PRO FS7 Far Red 2 Pack Far-red LEDs are valuable in plant growth and photosynthesis for a few important reasons, and the Emerson Effect plays a significant role in this. Enhanced Photosynthesis (Emerson Effect): The Emerson Effect refers to the phenomenon where photosynthesis is more efficient when both red and far-red light are provided together. When plants are exposed to both red (660–680 nm) and far-red (700–750 nm) light, they experience an increase in the efficiency of photosynthesis compared to exposure to red light alone. Far-red light helps stimulate a photoreceptor called phytochrome, which is involved in regulating growth processes like seed germination and flowering. When red and far-red light are combined, it maximizes the overall absorption of light energy and enhances photosynthesis. Photomorphogenesis and Plant Development: Far-red light also influences plant growth beyond photosynthesis. Phytochromes help regulate critical processes such as stem elong
