37 THE GREENHOUSE EFFECT THE INFLUENCE OF: LIGHT, WATER & TEMPERATURE ON PLANT GROWTH

38 WATER

39 Water Has 4 Main Roles (Broad Sense) Solvent - gases, inorganic and organic compounds are dissolved; the medium in which they enter cells. Reagent - part of many cellular reactions and processes Structure - present in plant cells, maintain turgor. Coolant - transpiration

40 Water Quality and Quantity? Too little / Too Much? How Much: Crop, Stage of Growth, Outside Weather, Season, Growing Medium, Method of Fertilization How to Determine When plants Need Watering? Water Stress Can Occur Under 4 conditions How Applied? When? Soil Drainage (perimeter effect)

41 Relative Humidity Definition? Optimum? Control? Temperature ( o C) H 2 O Content (g/m 3 )

42 LIGHT

43 LIGHT Major Photoresponses in Plants 1. Photosynthesis 2. Chlorophyll Synthesis 3. Phototropism 4. Photoperiodism 5. Photomorphogenesis

44 LIGHT Major Photoresponses in Plants 1. Photosynthesis 2. Chlorophyll Synthesis 3. Phototropism 4. Photoperiodism 5. Photomorphogenesis

45 Photosynthesis & Rate is Temperature Dependent

46 LIGHT Major Photoresponses in Plants 1. Photosynthesis 2. Chlorophyll Synthesis 3. Phototropism 4. Photoperiodism 5. Photomorphogenesis

47 LIGHT Major Photoresponses in Plants 1. Photosynthesis 2. Chlorophyll Synthesis 3. Phototropism Phototropism is a directional growth response to light, that is a bending response of plants stimulated by light. 4. Photoperiodism 5. Photomorphogenesis

48 LIGHT Major Photoresponses in Plants 1. Photosynthesis 2. Chlorophyll Synthesis 3. Phototropism 4. Photoperiodism short day, long day, & day neutral plants 5. Photomorphogenesis

51 Characteristics? Intensity -depends on? -measured in? -artificial? Duration Quality LIGHT

52 LIGHT Characteristics? Intensity in the greenhouse -depends on? Type of Structure (style & structural components) Covering Material(s) (type, # of layers, cleanliness, condensation) Greenhouse Orientation Latitude Local Climate & Weather Time of Year Shadows

53 Light Plant Growth Rate (Photosynthesis Respiration) Light Compensation Point (mid Nov to mid February?) Light Saturation Point

54 TEMPERATURE

55 Photosynthesis & Rate is Temperature Dependent

56 Greenhouse Temperature; Factors To Consider Greenhouses heat up for 2 reasons: 1.because of the greenhouse effect 2. because the greenhouse is an enclosed space

57 Greenhouse Temperature; Factors To Consider The extent to which the temperature of a greenhouse rises above outdoor temperatures is dependent on : 1. Amount of solar radiant energy transmitted through the greenhouse covering 2. What happens to that energy 3. How much is retained within the structure

58 Greenhouse Temperature, As with Light Intensity, Also Influenced By: Type of Structure (style & structural components) Covering Material(s) (type, # of layers, cleanliness, condensation) Greenhouse Orientation Latitude Local Climate & Weather Time of Year Shadows PLUS, OF COURSE, HEAT FROM ANY ARTIFICIAL HEATING SYSTEM

59 Greenhouse Temperature: Air temperature Leaf Temperature Substrate Temperature Irrigation Water Temperature

60 Greenhouse Temperature Basic Plant Growth Processes (Photosynthesis, Respiration, Protein Synthesis & Other Plant Processes) Plant Growth Rate (Photosynthesis Respiration) Optimum Day/Night Temperatures Combinations Temperature Affects (minimum, optimum, maximum) Seed Germination Vegetative Growth Flowering (Flower Initiation & Development)

61 Greenhouse Temperature Substrate Temperature Affects: *decomposition of organic matter & availability of nutrients (effect on soil microorganisms; <10C?) *adsorption of water & nutrients Factors affecting substrate temperatures: greenhouse air temperature (lags?). crop cover bench type -how much is influenced by substrate volume (shallow trays/small pots - larger containers beds container (pot) colour * Substrate temperature and plant diseases Pythium usually more severe at lower temperatures Rhizoctonia usually more severe at higher temperatures

62 Greenhouse Temperature Temperature of the Irrigation Water: * irrigation water temperature and substrate temperature differential? * soilless substrates in containers versus soils in beds? * crops? * pathogens?

63 Temperature Temperature ranges ( C) for seed germination, growth and development of: cool-season, moderate-season, and warm-season vegetable crops.

64 Temperature (Celsius) Cool Season Crops: Beet, Broad Bean, Broccoli, Brussels Sprouts, Cabbage, Chard, Chives, Collards, Garlic, Kale, Leek, Onion, Parsnip, Peas, Radish, Rutabaga, Shallot, Spinach Seed Germination Min=2; Opt=10-20; Max=35 Development Min=4; Opt=13-24; Max=30

65 Temperature (Celsius) Moderate-Season Crops: Artichoke, Carrot, Cauliflower, Celery, Chinese Cabbages, Endive, Lettuce, Lima Bean, Mustard Greens, Parsley, Potato, Snap Beans, Sweet Corn Seed Germination Min=4; Opt=13-28; Max=35 Development Min=7; Opt=15-26; Max=32

66 Temperature (Celsius) Warm-Season Crops: Cucumber, Eggplant, Melons, Okra, Peppers (sweet and hot), Pumpkin, Squash, Sweet Potato Seed Germination Min=15; Opt=20-30; Max=40 Development Min=15; Opt=18-25; Max=37

67 Temperature High & Low temperature injury High: Peas : >30C flower abortion Corn : >34C (poor pollination) plants can survive >45C for short periods Low: Basil +10 Kale -14 C.
