FAQ About Bioluminescent Indoor Plant Varieties

How do bioluminescent plants produce light?

Bioluminescent plants produce light through a biochemical reaction involving luciferin, a light-emitting compound, and luciferase, the enzyme that catalyzes the reaction. When luciferin is oxidized by luciferase in the presence of oxygen, it releases energy in the form of visible light, which results in the plant emitting a glow.
