Part 25 Article: Biotechnology My Blog Title: The world, from the past to the present, retold from the timelines. Click on PDF to download from Part 3 2023: [10.23] The first successful transplant of a functional cryopreserved mammalian kidney was reported. The study demonstrated a "nano-warming" technique for vitrification for up-to-100 days preservation of transplant organs. Sourced from [frontiersin.org] titled: “Supercooling: a promising technique for prolonged preservation in solid organ transplantation, and early perspectives in vascularized composite allografts.” From the perspective of temperature, machine perfusion can be classified into four categories: HMP “hypothermic machine perfusion” (0°C to 12°C), MMP “mid-thermic machine perfusion” (13°C to 24°C), SNMP “subnormothermic machine perfusion” (25°C to 34°C), and NMP “normothermic machine perfusion” (35°C to 38°C). As metabolic activity increases exponentially with increasing temperature, the required amount of oxy...

Can Indoor Plants Live Without Light?

My Blog Title: Can Indoor Plants Live Without Lights?

Plants need water, nutrients from soil and sunlight photosynthesis to produce internal food, sugar energy to power the growth in flowering, fruiting and leafy foliage. Accordingly, fruits have a sweet taste in the mix in bearings. 


Plants thriving in the wildforest, grown in the garden, and planted in the pots, have different growth. Plants in the wild and gardening absorb sufficient sunlight for natural growth. 


So can plants live without light? 


In the wild forest canopy ecosystem, taller trees block sunlight from penetration to the floor habitats, yet certain floor-based plants can adapt to the low light, or partial light while in flourishments. Indoor plants or houseplants are plants we grow inside the house or building in part of decorative ornamental or air purification. 


Why don't we question "why indoor plants can live inside the house or building"? This doubt is the answer of "can plants live without light?". If we keep pot plants in the basement devoid of light for persistent weeks, houseplants will not survive. In windowless building, sunlight won't reach to the houseplant, yet indoor plants can live under the condition of artificial light. Lightbulb we switch on is the artificial light source for artificial photosynthesis. 


Light is natural and artificial. Sunshine is natural light, and light bulb is artificial. Sunlight penetrates glass windows in the photonic visible spectrum. If we place indoor plants near the glass window or in the room where sunshine can lighten up in daytime, houseplants stay alive at slower form than their natural form in gardening and in the wildforest. 


Therefore, intensive care for houseplant periodically can help the indoor plants to artificially and naturally photosynthesize the light better. For instance, dust off indoor plant leaf periodically if the room is stillness with less air circulation. Also relocate pot plants to outdoor occasionally for natural windy, rainy and shiny reasons. 


If plants hailing from tropical rainforest or other exotic wilderness can live in partial shady conditions, and are well accustomed to seasonal climate adaptation like cold and hot temperature, that implies different care methods for indoor plants. For instance, if indoor plant lives on less moisture absorption, overwatering indoor plants suffocate the plants. If indoor plants are drought-resistance in nature, underwatering or low maintenance care can still keep the plants alive. 


In decorative ornamental purpose, slower growth of indoor plants is an advantage for inhouse confinement decoration, otherwise there would be forest thrived in the room. 


Indoor plants can liven up the room in varieties of colorful leafy foliage with predominant color and streaked in vascular grayish and mixture color, and structural shape of leaf form like in full spreading of umbrella, oval, arrow, nickel, and staghorn shape; incomplete split leaf; in frilled shape; in fern, or frond; or serrated leaf; and trailing vine from hanging basket; stalk clinged on moss poll or droop-down; fleshy succulent stem; variegated flower in curling and unfurling. Stripe pattern and streak line of coded color is another vivid and glossy picture of houseplants. 


If we visit a pot-plant shop or store, we would find that there are many species of houseplants. For examples, Dwarf Bamboo, String of Nickels, Silver Dollar Vine, Paddle Plant, Swiss Cheese Plant, Peace Lily, Air Plants, Barrel Cactus, Orchid, Lipstick Plant, String of Turtles, Moon Valley Friendship Plant, ZZ Plant (Zamioculcas zamiifolia), Zebra Cactus.


We are not horticulturists, thus, in order to grow indoor plants healthily, we have to inquire plant specialists to have an idea of how individual indoor plants live. If we are novice or beginner to indoor plants, that would be a trial-and-error to care for the plants. 


Light of natural intensity including rainbow, moonlight, sunlight and visible artificial intensity from brightness color to red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet, and invisible spectrum like gamma ray, cosmic ray and infrared light from outer space are not just light, they are energy of life. The lighted energy is emitted in nano wavelength and has hot and cold temperature in contact. Natural sunlight is free power from the sun, while artificial light, for instance LED bulb, fluorescent bulb, incandescent bulb are paid light sources. Likewise, sunlight we feel warm on the skin and absorbed into the body bone is natural source of Vitamin D. Light is also a therapy to treat certain skin problems like acne and joint pain in modern science medication.
