20130329417 | NOVEL LIGHT SOURCES AND METHODS FOR ILLUMINATING PLANTS TO ACHIEVE EFFECTIVE PLANT GROWTH - A light source for growing a plant or its propagule is described. The light source includes: (i) a power component requiring an input power; (ii) a light source receiving the input power to illuminate, for a period of time, a growth area of the plant/propagule with an incident light having a spectral profile defined by a first (i.e., between about 400 nm and about 470 nm), a second (i.e., between about 526 nm and about 570 nm) and a third (i.e., between about 626 nm and about 700 nm) set of wavelengths, the light source component provides a photosynthetic productivity from the plant/propagule that is greater than that achieved if the same the growth area of the plant/propagule had been illuminated by another incident light for substantially same time period, and the another incident light includes the first and third, but not the second set of wavelengths. | 12-12-2013 |
20130326947 | NOVEL LIGHT SOURCES AND METHODS FOR ILLUMINATING PLANTS TO ACHIEVE EFFECTIVE PLANT GROWTH - A method of growing a plant or its propagule is described. The method includes: (i) powering a light source with input power to generate an incident light; (ii) illuminating, for a period of time, a growth area of the plant/propagule with the incident light having a spectral profile defined by a first (i.e., between about 400 nm and about 470 nm), a second (i.e., between about 526 nm and about 570 nm) and a third (i.e., between about 626 nm and about 700 nm) set of wavelengths; (iii) achieving, using the incident light, a photosynthetic productivity that is greater than that achieved if the growth area of the plant/propagule had been illuminated by another incident light with same amount of input power for substantially same period of time, and another incident light includes the first and the third set of wavelengths, but not the second set of wavelengths. | 12-12-2013 |
20130326946 | NOVEL LIGHT SOURCES AND METHODS FOR ILLUMINATING PLANTS TO ACHIEVE EFFECTIVE PLANT GROWTH - A method of growing a plant or its propagule is described. The method includes: (i) powering a light source with input power to generate an incident light; (ii) illuminating, for a period of time, a growth area of the plant/propagule with the incident light having a spectral profile defined by a first (i.e., between about 400 nm and about 470 nm), a second (i.e., between about 526 nm and about 570 nm) and a third (i.e., between about 626 nm and about 700 nm) set of wavelengths; (iii) achieving, using the incident light, a final harvest index that is greater than that achieved if the growth area of the plant/propagule had been illuminated by another incident light with same amount of input power for substantially same period of time, and another incident light includes the first and the third set of wavelengths, but not the second set of wavelengths. | 12-12-2013 |
