Correlations between the Growth Period and Fresh Weight of Seed Sprouts and Pixel Counts of Leaf Area

Abstract: Purpose: This study was carried out to predict the growth period and fresh weight of sprouts grown in a cultivator designed to grow sprouts under optimal conditions. Methods: The temperature, light intensity, and amount of irrigation were controlled, and images of seed sprouts were acquired to predict the days of growth and weight from pixel counts of leaf area. Broccoli, clover, and radish sprouts were selected, and each sprout was cultivated in a 90-mm-diameter Petri dish under the same cultivating condition… Show more

“…Harvesting plants at the optimal time can promote uniform quality production while preserving nutrients and reducing growing time. The optimal harvesting time for each crop can be determined based on the measurement of its fresh weight; this can be estimated using digital images of the crop (Macfarlane et al, 2007;Lati et al, 2011;Son et al, 2014;Easlon and Bloom, 2014). Such a machine vision system is one of the most advantageous sensing techniques for measuring crop-growing status, because it uses realtime sensing and does not cause crop damage.…”
