“…The change rule of crop water consumption has a certain relationship with soil environment [ 14 , 15 , 16 ], climatic conditions [ 17 , 18 ], cultivation system [ 19 , 20 ], etc. The water consumption of each stage of crop growth and development can directly represent the water consumption characteristics and water demand of crops and can reflect the sensitivity of crops to water in each growth period, which can be used to infer the critical period and peak period of crop water demand to promote the growth and development of crops to increase yield [ 21 ].…”

“…Light is also lost after seedlings are transplanted to pots or substrate blocks. Providing far-red light (700–750 nm) can accelerate early leaf expansion, canopy closure, and subsequent light interception ( Jin et al., 2021 ; Carotti et al., 2023 ) until dynamic spacing is adequate to control ground coverage.…”

“…An integrated approach, therefore, is imperative for increasing food security. For instance, using aeroponic farming systems for vegetable production could be the most promising water-efficient approach to urban agriculture [26,91]. The adoption of innovative technologies has the potential to decrease water consumption while simultaneously preserving or even enhancing crop yields [92].…”

“…Both water and nutrients, which have not been absorbed by plants, will be recycled after adjusting the EC and pH to the optimal levels. Thus, water use efficiency could be maximized [53,91].…”
