Could lasers help plants grow TWICE as fast?
Light technology keeps food fresher for longer and could solve world hunger

  • Laser system made by experts at the Michurinsk State Agrarian University
  • They claim it makes crops grow twice as quickly, without any pesticides
  • It could be used in remote or urban areas to boost food production




There are currently no details as to how the technology works precisely, but using lasers would bathe plants in a beam of light composed of just a single wavelength or colour.

Other scientists are currently investigating the potential of different coloured LED lights to boost plant growth.

The Russian experts say lasers accelerate the natural processes in plant cells so that seeds and grains sprout faster.

They claim the system is even capable of healing diseased plants by boosting their immune system.

While this may seem far-fetched, one previous study has shown that plants exposed to helium neon lasers, or red radiation,

repaired damaged tissues more rapidly than those not treated with the light therapy, according to the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB).



The prototype equipment (pictured) moves though rows of plants in a greenhouse, blasting them with light, to boost their growth and kill diseases

Horse shit! Just how are they getting a broad spectrum of light to have the plants grow with any real quality......Lasers are pretty damn narrow on the spectrum.....

Maybe the Russians used them to hack Trumps brain and grow his stupid cells faster!
you clearly do not understand the magic of lasers and leds hehehehehe (sarcasm)
