<![CDATA[This study investigates the effect of different artificial colors red-blue and white on the growth of green spinach microgreens under an internet of things (IoT) based controlled environment and integrated sensors: DHT22 for temperature and humidity, and YL-69 for soil moisture. The experiment compared plant growth in two lighting scenarios over 10 days evaluating parameters including plant height and number of leaves. Results indicate that spinach microgreens grown under red-blue LED light achieved a slightly higher average height of 4.6cm and more leaves of 50 compared to white LED light with an average height of 4.5cm and 36 leaves. Although the difference between the two lighting conditions appears minor, a t-test was conducted to determine statistical significance. The results show that the difference in the number of leaves is statistically significant, suggesting that morphological responses particularly leaf growth take precedence over vertical steam elongation as an adaptive strategy to optimize environmental conditions.]]>
