Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect In Crunchy lettuce, plant height, leaf number and leaf width were highest under light intensity of 300.
- Intervention effect In Deangelia lettuce, plant width and leaf length were smallest under light intensity of 300.
- Association Fresh weight of shoot and root increased with increasing light intensity in the three cultivars.
- Association Soluble sugar, soluble protein and ascorbic acid contents increased with increasing light intensity in the three cultivars.
- Association Tipburn was observed in Crunchy lettuce under light intensity of 300.
- Association Tipburn was observed in Deangelia lettuce under light intensities of 300 and 240.
- Association Shawen spinach exhibited leaf curling under all four light intensities.
- Recommendation Shawen spinach needs comprehensive cultivation optimization in plant factories to achieve successful cultivation.
- Intervention effect Light intensities of 240 and 180 were the most optimum for Crunchy and Deangelia lettuce, respectively.
