We can also increase yield and desirable traits by providing the right wave lengths at the right point of the plants lifecycle, we can make the basil more intense, the lettuce bushier and more red. And we can control the environment to easier prevent vermin without pesticides, bad weather, etc. We also do large scale installations in the desert under ground where we previously couldn’t farm at all.
I was an engineer at a company called Heliospectra, we specialized in this and I personally built systems that on an industrial scale enabled above light/environment control down to umol of individual wavelengths every minute based on variables such as sensor feedback, algorithms for specific types of plants and traits as well as learning to adapt based on the environmental daily patterns from sensor feedback over time. It was actually quite fun to work on, I do still keep in contact with the company.
