Solar Power Is Fuel for Plants

(Newswire.net — June 20, 2018) Cheyenne, Wyoming — The Sam Cooke lyric “don’t know much about history, don’t know much biology” might as well be the soundtrack to many novice home gardener’s attempts to nurturing their potted plants and landscaping efforts. But as the track title is amply titled “what a wonderful would it be” if gardeners understood the scope of their plants needs for survival. 

“The Greek roots of photosynthesis combine to produce the basic meaning “to put together with the help of light”,” informs the Merriam-Webster Dictionary. “Photosynthesis is what first produced oxygen in the atmosphere billions of years ago, and it’s still what keeps it there. Sunlight splits the water molecules (made of hydrogen and oxygen) held in plant’s leaves and releases the oxygen in them into the air. The leftover hydrogen combines with carbon dioxide to produce carbohydrates, which the plant uses as food—as do any animals or humans who might eat the plant.” 

So now you know a bit more about biology and there is no excuse for not seeking out the information about the soil quality, water and sunlight each plant requires. In fact the HealthyWiser ™ 3-in-1 Soil Meter tests for just that – the soil pH level, moisture and light exposure are all analyzed within minutes to deliver accurate and reliable results for the purpose of improving the life of one’s plants. 

“During the course of evolution, plants developed the capability of capturing and utilizing the solar radiation,” explains Banaras Hindu University, Department of Botany in their research paper entitled Role of Light in Plant Development. “These plants gained an evolutionary advantage over those that have not developed these traits. Light besides being an important source of energy also controls many developmental processes like photoperiodism, phototropism and photomorphogenesis of plant growth. 

Sunlight is the engine for the process of photosynthesis to take place as plants are stunted without its radiant energy. With the many different climates that can be found throughout America, it’s important to identify the environmental patterns unique to one’s geography then wisely select plants best suited for one’s terrain.

“I bought this as a gift for a friend, he loves to garden and be outdoors,” shares a verified customer on Amazon. “He was so excited and he went right out to his garden and tested it out. I think he is in love. I have to say it was really neat to see the information this gave. It told him that there wasn’t enough moisture and he needed to essentially water.” 

The HealthyWiser™ 3-in-1 Soil Meter has been proven to be the best device for collecting essential data and guiding users on implementing changes to satisfy their plant’s needs.
