2. Shade tolerance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shade_tolerance

   Most red light gets absorbed by the shade-intolerant canopy plants, but more of the far-red light penetrates the canopy, reaching the understorey. The shade-tolerant plants found here are capable of photosynthesis using light at such wavelengths. [citation needed] The situation with respect to nutrients is often different in shade and sun.

3. Photosynthesis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosynthesis

   These include the amount of light available, the amount of leaf area a plant has to capture light (shading by other plants is a major limitation of photosynthesis), the rate at which carbon dioxide can be supplied to the chloroplasts to support photosynthesis, the availability of water, and the availability of suitable temperatures for carrying ...

4. List of tree species by shade tolerance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tree_species_by...

   Shade-tolerant species are species that are able to thrive in the shade, and in the presence of natural competition by other plants. Shade-intolerant species require full sunlight and little or no competition. Intermediate shade-tolerant trees fall somewhere in between the two.

   Best of all, it's one of the few low-light plants that is pet-safe. Some types have white-speckled foliage. Light: Low to bright indirect light Water: When mostly dry Size: 2 to 3 feet tall.

6. Photosynthetic efficiency - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosynthetic_efficiency

   Many plants lose much of the remaining energy on growing roots. Most crop plants store ~0.25% to 0.5% of the sunlight in the product (corn kernels, potato starch, etc.). Photosynthesis increases linearly with light intensity at low intensity, but at higher intensity this is no longer the case (see Photosynthesis-irradiance curve). Above about ...

7. Grow light - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grow_light

   Ficus plant grown under a white LED grow light. A grow light is an electric light that can help plants grow. Grow lights either attempt to provide a light spectrum similar to that of the sun, or to provide a spectrum that is more tailored to the needs of the plants being cultivated (typically a varying combination of red and blue light, which generally appears pink to purple to the human eye).
