How to light your vining crops
Each farm is unique, and vining crops create some of the most interesting farms. Since many fruiting crops grow high and are trellised into the growing space, vining crop farms create a jungle of plants that can get tough to manage. Over the years, humans have perfected the cultivation of vining crops in indoor environments. We know how to keep them clean, contained, and in supply of everything they need.
One of the most dynamic factors in managing these types of farms is the lighting for vine crops. For indoor vining crop growers, artificial lighting is required. When it comes to choosing, arranging, and maintaining those lights, things get interesting.
In this post, Upstart University reveals the basics of light and vining crops, from how plants use light, how vining crops need light to be delivered, and how you as a farmer can choose and manage light for your indoor vining crop farm.
