Short Day Plant

Short Day Plant - Easy to Understand Definition

A plant that requires more than 12 hours of darkness to flower

Real World Example

Imagine trying to watch your favorite TV show, but it only airs when it's dark outside. Just like you waiting for nighttime to catch your show, a short day plant needs more than 12 hours of darkness to initiate flowering. The TV show represents the flowering process, and the nighttime is like the required period of darkness; both need the right conditions to start.
