Light diffusion through diffuse reflective glass in Greenhouse

In order to balance the best internal climate of greenhouse, how to use light is the top priority of greenhouse control strategy of growers. In the production of greenhouse vegetables, the rule of thumb generally shows that an increase of 1% in light means an increase of 1% in the yield that can be achieved. Therefore, in most cases, greenhouse growers are willing to let as much sunlight into the greenhouse as possible to achieve the maximum potential photosynthesis. Then, as the first step of natural light entering the greenhouse, a large number of companies and research institutions have studied its structure, light treatment, glass light transmission and so on.

How to achieve more diffuse light irradiation in greenhouse is a trend not only in the Netherlands, but also in the global greenhouse horticulture industry. The diffuse reflective glass on the top of the greenhouse can improve the distribution of light on crops on the basis of retaining as much incident light as possible in the greenhouse. Through the application of diffuse glass, the relatively concentrated light at the top of the plant will be reduced, and the light that can touch the bottom of the plant will be more. It can not only benefit the microclimate around crops, but also promote key seed setting processes such as fruit color conversion.

Moreover, the significant reduction of direct sunlight can also improve the situation of plant burns in extreme cases; Plants can keep cool, and the light pressure in environmental stress can also be controlled. And because there is no more concern about crop burns, more sunlight can enter the greenhouse and more energy can be used for crop photosynthesis. It is especially suitable for chrysanthemum, Phalaenopsis, Anthurium and other potted plants that need a lot of light.
