FAQ About Indoor Plant Hormonal Balances
What is phototropism and how is it related to plant hormones?
Phototropism is the growth of a plant toward or away from a light source, primarily driven by the distribution of the plant hormone auxin. In indoor plants, phototropism ensures that they orient themselves to maximize light capture, essential for photosynthesis. Auxins accumulate on the shaded side of the plant, promoting more cell growth there and causing the plant to bend toward the light.
