Forsome plant varieties, the rooting rate,when cultivated under fluorescentlights, was not satisfactory, butincreased dramatically when cultivatedwith Philips GreenPower LED lighting.Plant rooting times were reduced by 15%compared with those under normalfluorescent lights, resulting in a shorterproduction period and increasedproduction efficiency. Shanghai Dadiwas very satisfied with these results,specifically the LED lighting’s promotionof plant growth and the cooperationwith the Philips horticultural LED lightingteam. Cooperation between the twocompanies will continue in the hope ofdiscovering more plant tissue cultureapplications that can be used in thelarge-scale industrial production ofplant tissue cultures.ResultsStronger seedlings, higherrooting rate, and shorterrooting time“The plants cultivated with Philips GreenPowerLED were stronger. Beside energy saving andlow heat radiation, the unique light recipes fortissue culture from Philips really help the plantsto have better and uniformed quality.”28 Philips Horticulture LED Solutions - General booklet
