FAQ About Urban Indoor Planting Without Windows

How can I provide sufficient light to plants in a windowless space?

In a windowless space, providing adequate lighting for plants is crucial. The most effective way is to use artificial lighting, such as LED grow lights, which are energy-efficient and can be adjusted to emit the spectrum of light that plants need for photosynthesis. Fluorescent lights are another option, especially for smaller spaces or for plants that do not require intense light. It's important to balance the light duration according to the plant's natural light cycle, typically 12-16 hours of light per day depending on the species.
