A potted plant may be placed in a dark cupboard to induce dormancy or limit its exposure to light, such as when simulating winter conditions for certain plants. This can help regulate the plant's growth cycles and promote overall health. It's important to research the specific needs of the plant to ensure it thrives in this environment.
a plant is planted in a dark cupboard because it draws more sunlight so it makes the plant healthier
the plant cannot carry on photosynthesis and allot of carbon dioxide
If an aloe plant is turning dark green, it may indicate that it is not receiving enough sunlight. To replenish it, gradually introduce it to more sunlight, ideally about 6-8 hours of indirect sunlight per day. Ensure it is potted in well-draining soil and water it only when the top inch of soil is dry to the touch.
It Stops. It is a by-product of Photosynthesis, and without light Photosynthesis can not take place.
If a plant is kept in a dark cupboard for a week, it will likely suffer from lack of light and may start to wilt or lose its color. Without access to sunlight, the plant will be unable to photosynthesize and may not survive if left in those conditions for an extended period of time.
You can test the necessity of sunlight for photosynthesis by conducting an experiment with plants placed in varying light conditions. One group should be exposed to sunlight, while another is kept in the dark. Measure factors like oxygen production or starch accumulation to determine the impact of sunlight on photosynthesis.
