The world’s most beautiful greenhouses are underwater, and growing strawberries.

Interesting.
I find it surprising that they're seeing strong growth with lighting peaks of only 10K LUX during the day.
In my greenhouse, I measure 60K LUX at noon and I thought strawberries required full sun for good growth.

That's cool! But light decreases under water..... Wouldn't mind being one of the divers, though!
