1. A method of cultivating a plant using only artificial lights and comprising;
- a step (A) of irradiating the plant with a red light anda step (B) of irradiating the plant with a blue light, to enhance growth promotion effect,wherein the red light-irradiation step (A) and the blue light irradiation step (B) are independently carried out for a predetermined period of time under cultivation conditions such that a concentration of carbon dioxide in a cultivation atmosphere at the blue light irradiation step (B) is higher than that at the red light irradiation step (A),wherein the concentration of carbon dioxide in a cultivation atmosphere at the blue light irradiation step (B) is controlled by supplying carbon dioxide at a predetermined flow rate, while the concentration of carbon dioxide in the air is measured, and the flow rate of carbon dioxide is controlled so that the concentration is in the range of 1,000 ppm to 2,500 ppm and the concentration of carbon dioxide in a cultivation atmosphere at the red-light irradiation step (A) is controlled by supplying carbon dioxide at a predetermined flow rate, while the concentration of carbon dioxide in the air is measured, and the flow rate of carbon dioxide is controlled so that the concentration is in the range of 700 ppm to 1,500 ppm, andwherein time length of each predetermined period of time for the red light irradiation step (A) and time length of each predetermined period of time for the blue light irradiation step (B) are 3 to 48 hours, respectively.

Abstract
A plant-cultivating method is provided which comprises a red light irradiation step (A) and a blue light irradiation step (B), wherein the step (A) and the step (B) are independently carried out for a predetermined period of time under cultivation conditions such that the concentration of carbon dioxide in a cultivation atmosphere at the step (B) is higher than that at the step (A). Preferably the concentrations of carbon dioxide at the step (B) and the step (A) are 1000-2500 ppm and 700-1500 ppm, respectively. The concentration of carbon dioxide at the step (B) is preferably at least 200 ppm higher than that at the step (A).
