Abstract:Light intensity and quality play a key role in plant growth and development. Photoselective shade nets control light quality, temperature, and humidity, improving plant growth, color, and flowering, and resulting in better commercial quality of ornamental plants. This study aimed to assess the growth and quality parameters of two varieties of Begonia Megawatt plants cultivated under photoselective shade nets. The experiment followed a randomized block design with subdivided plots. The plots included blue, red,… Show more
