Infrared light affects plant growth.

the verdict
INSUFFICIENT LEANING
Recorded sources
3 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that infrared light affects plant growth?

Unclear. The retrieved items only partially bear on the claim: one study reports that infrared radiation affects transpiration and leaf temperature in cucumber plants, and a reference work notes plant canopies exchange infrared radiation. None directly measures infrared light's effect on plant growth itself.
