Simon Merett had a great idea of creating a "request list" feature, where people could submit ideas/topic proposals for white papers to be written on. It could also be an opportunity for teams to be formed and write the paper jointly. So we'll use this page as the "master request/idea list." Feel free to submit your ideas directly to the comments on this post or edit the post itself if you're a project member (just make sure to retain this header).

HJWYDK Paper Request / Idea List

There have been a lot of agro hacks and automated gardens and indoor gardens and such.

There's actually a lot of subtlety in scientific gardening. I found out recently that plants use the red light from sunset as a signal to go into "night mode", triggering simple respiration or dormant mode (depending on the plant). Gardeners are experimenting with 18-hours of sunlight, followed by a high dose of red light to put the plants into night mode faster.

It would be interesting to get original research by hobbyists describing how variations in conditions affects growth and yield.
