Plant Growth
Everything in an environment affects how a plant grows, thrives and reproduces. When growing plants, climate control is essential to maximize the photosynthetic process. By maintaining optimal relative humidity, temperature and light levels, you ensure optimal plant transpiration.
It’s well recognized that temperature and humidity are two of the main environmental factors which will determine your plants growth levels and overall health. Depending on which stage of the lifecycle your plant is at, will depend on the humidity and temperature levels that you should maintain.
There are typically three main temperature points of plant growth. These refer to the minimal, optimal, and maximum temperature.
- Vegetative phase – 25 degrees Celsius and 60-70% humidity.
- Flowering phase – 28 degrees Celsius and 40-50% humidity.
Light is also an essential factor in maintaining plants. The rate of growth and length of time a plant remains active is dependent on the amount of light it receives. Light energy is used in photosynthesis, the plant’s most basic metabolic process.
- Seed germination – very low light levels, typically under 80 micromoles
- Plant tissue culture – low light levels, 50 – 150 micromoles
- Arabidopsis and Algae – medium light levels, around 300 micromoles
- General crops and ornamentals – high light levels, 400 – 500 micromoles
- Cannabis and tobacco plants – very high light levels, in excess of 900 micromoles
- Plant pathology studies - medium to low light levels, 150-300 micromoles, with special coated refrigeration system if flying insects are involved.
Within your grow space, we advise that you keep on top of all growth factors such as light, Co2 levels, water, temperature and nutrition. By optimizing these, you will achieve maximized results from your plants.
