Light leaves must

The leaves of plants are food factories, and light is the force that helps them to produce food by air and ground elements. Most plants require many hours of sun a day, to grow satisfactorily. Rose, for example, are at least six hours. Some plants, however, get along with little light, so that they grow in shade or partial shade.

A good general rule to remember is that the sun is usually more the plant has the better it willFlower.

Morning light is a kind of light, bright but relatively cool, so that the east side of the house is in a prime location for the plants.

Afternoon sun is hot and difficult, so a radiation West is less versatile.

So moving and heating of the ground is desirable in the spring to start growing plants. And it is good year round in cold climates. But in hot summer areas, it can overheat the soil and roots dry, so the plants often require part-shade, or near enoughtogether to shade the soil or plant in a soil protection mat cover.

Light

The light hits the plants in many ways. The scientific name for the process by which green plants use light energy to carbohydrates (food) from carbon dioxide and water to synthesize "photosynthesis", from the Greek words photo meaning light, and synthesis, so the compilation.

Light provides the energy to transform carbon dioxide from the air forWater and certain inorganic minerals into organic matter and oxygen, which give the plant, while there is light. Where the light is not present, stops photosynthesis, plants absorb oxygen and carbon dioxide.

The research led to the classification of plants according to their characteristics of day length. One group, "short-day plants flower when the days are short and the nights are long." Long Day plants flower when the days are long and the nights are short.Others are not affected by day length and are considered "light, neutral or indifferent."

That regulate the light in the garden

Outdoor gardeners can get their results, increasing the quantity and the consecutive hours of lighting systems for their improvement. A mulch white (as the stones of light), a building painted white or fenceor wear strips placed on a sheet of aluminum in the garden more light energy to the plant into consideration, and encourage more growth. Fruit growers can prune to increase flowering in the middle of their trees bud formation through which the light in the center of their trees.

Light also affects the germination of seeds. Some seeds germinate readily when exposed than when the light buried in the ground. Being herbs, lettuce, celery, snapdragons, petunias and flowering tobacco, all of success ifThe seeds are only pushed down, or slightly diluted in culture medium.
