What i read from some other article said...when the plants running the photosynthesis. It is not just need the lighting n co2. But some other source like fe, nitrate...etc.
Dom, btw, I read is right before the photoperiod ends. Btw, i think closed doesn't mean it cannot absorb the nutrients and transport the by-products to other parts of the plant. Close could mean it stops photosyntesis.

*sigh* Where is my biology book when I need it now?
