Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Fresh mass was significantly higher under 100% blue LEDs than other environments.
- Intervention effect Fresh mass was significantly higher under 70% red + 30% blue LEDs than other environments.
- Intervention effect Phytochemical concentrations and nutritive value were significantly affected by light treatments.
- Intervention effect Vitamin C content was 2.25-fold higher under 100% blue LEDs than in greenhouse.
- Intervention effect Photosynthesis and PSII maximal quantum yield were higher under LED lights.
- Intervention effect LED lighting elevated macro- and micronutrient concentrations in lettuce.
- Recommendation Authors suggest LED lights could enhance lettuce growth and nutritional value in indoor production.
