Eight light treatments were compared to determine the distribution and duration of supplementary lighting (HPS) that are best suited for the production of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) in winter. Seven groups of plants were exposed to supplementary lighting in two ways: with day length prolonged without interruption or with nights interrupted, producing photoperiods of 14, 16, 18, or 20 h. A control group was exposed only to sunlight. For a given duration of lighting, the type of light distribution affected neither the vegetative growth nor the early yield of the greenhouse cucumber. Plants exposed to long day lengths showed the best rate of growth and the highest yields: 20 h > 18 h > 16 h or 14 h > control.Key words: Cucumber, supplementary lighting (HPS), photoperiod, greenhouse, Cucumis sativus L.
