Abstract

An electrochemical cell has a first electrode inserted into growth media (soil) and a second electrode inserted into a plant at a position above the ground. The first electrode is coupled to the second electrode to form a potential difference therebetween. An injector has charged fluorescent colorants therein. The injector injects the charged fluorescent colorants into plant above the ground and the potential difference drives the charged fluorescent colorants through a portion of the plant that is above the ground. The potential difference can be formed through a galvanic cell, with an external power supply, and/or a solar panel or cell.
