Abstract

A plant cultivation light source includes at least two light sources selected from first, second, and third light sources that emit first, second, and third lights, respectively. The first light has a first peak at a wavelength from about 400 nanometers to about 500 nanometers, the second light has a second peak appearing at a wavelength, which is longer than the first peak, from about 400 nanometers to about 500 nanometers, and the third light has a third peak appearing at a wavelength, which is shorter than the first peak, from about 400 nanometers to about 500 nanometers. The first light is a white light and has a first sub-peak having an intensity lower than an intensity of the first peak at a wavelength from about 500 nanometers to about 700 nanometers. The first sub-peak has a full-width at half-maximum greater than a full-width at half-maximum of the first peak.
