Bakground for our current reseach

Growing plants under artificial light by controlled light spectrum - why:

  • Urban farming - growing underground
  • Short travelled food - kitchen garden
  • Growing of foreign/rare plant species with special needs
  • Stimulating/controlling various growth cycles like growing and flowering phase by controlling the light spectrum, day/night cycle, intensity
  • Plant propagation
  • Controlling proprieties like leaf distance - NMBU (Ås)
  • High performance industrial production
  • Space - extraterrestrial colonization
