Plants east and west

Table of contents

Without light, there is no life for plants. Only under the influence of sunlight can photosynthesis, i.e. the production of nutritious organic compounds, and the development of plants occur.Whether plants have enough light can be seen primarily in their appearance.

Deficiency of this life-giving energy is manifested by pulling out the shoots, too bright coloring of the leaves and lack of flowering.In turn, excess light - and thus alsoheat - causes burns of leaves, falling off of set buds, infestation by pests.
