MadSci Network: Botany |
I planted 4 plants under clear, red, yellow and green cellophane. I found information that said red light has the longest wavelength. It also said that waves with shorter wavelengths carry more energy. I can't find any information that will explain why the red plants, with the longest wavelength is about 3 cm taller and healthier looking than the others. Clear is the smallest. Where can I find information that I can understand as to why this is happening. I've looked everywhere. Thank you!
