Optimizing Temperature and Photoperiod in a Home Cultivation System to Program Normal, Delayed, and Hastened Growth and Development Modes for Leafy Oak-Leaf and Romaine Lettuces
As the risk of open-field cultivation increases with climate change, some analysts say that the day when ordinary vegetables will be produced at home is not far away. Moreover, due to the recent coronavirus outbreak, outdoor activities are becoming difficult, leisure activities that can be done at home have become more necessary, and the demand for home gardening has increased. This study was conducted to improve the technology for hydroponics at home. We experimented with whether the harvest time can be hastened or delayed by environmentally controlling the growing season, and what conditions are appropriate. Experiments were conducted with leafy vegetables (Lactuca sativa L. ‘Oak-leaf’ and Lactuca sativa L. var. longifolia, or romaine) that can easily be grown in a closed plant cultivator in which the external air can circulate, and the temperature/photoperiod can be controlled. Two settings for the temperature (25/18 °C and 20/15 °C; day/night) and three settings for the photoperiod (10, 14, and 18 hours; day/night) were employed. It took a total of four weeks from sowing to harvest, and the appropriate harvest time was predicted from the yield. As a result, although there was a difference depending on the vegetable variety, a temperature setting of 25/18 °C and a photoperiod of 14 hours were the most suitable for hastened growth, and a 20/15 °C temperature and 18 hours of photoperiod were suitable for the delayed growth.
