Abstract

Wageningen University and Research Business Unit Greenhouse Horticulture investigated the influence of LED light spectrum, diffuse glass and cultivar on photosynthesis, production, quality, dry matter distribution, resistance and microbiome in the root zone in a winter cultivation with blackberries and raspberries. In addition to the standard light spectrum, there were spectra with extra blue and far-red light. Diffuse glass gave 30% more production with blackberry than clear glass, but with raspberry this effect of the type of glass was the opposite. The influences of cultivar were usually much greater than these of light spectra. Blue light increased resistance to caterpillars. Blackberry had a higher photosynthesis than raspberry, but lower than tomato and strawberry. The light utilization efficiency of blackberry was more than 2.5 times higher than that of raspberry.
