Several vegetables which have different responses to light and temperature environments were used in this study. The vegetables selected in this study were spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.), B. rapa var. perviridis (komatsuna), Eruca vesicaria (rucola), Raphanobrassica, Corchorus olitorius and Japanese Mint (Mentha arvensis L. var. piperascens). The plants were cultivated under various light (intensity, quality and period) and temperature (air temperature and nutrient solution temperature) conditions. Photosynthetic rate, growth rate, morphogenesis were measured and functional components were analyzed. As a result the suitable conditions to increase growth rate and concentration of functional components at the same time were determined.
