Abstract

We determined the environmental factors required for optimal leaf lettuce growth (Lactuca sativa L. var. crispa cv.
Grand Rapids) in a plant factory.
Plants were allowed to grown under different CO₂ concentrations, light intensities and nutrient levels in an environmentally controlled room.
Photosynthetic rate increased with CO₂ enrichment and light intensity.
At 1000 and 2000 mgL^-1 of CO₂, growth rate was maximum.
Under CO₂ enrichment, optimum light intensity was determined to be around 200 µmol·m^-2s^-1, but nutrient levels did not affect growth rate.
