Claim 15:
16. A plant cultivation method using a light source module for plant cultivation, the light source module comprising at least two light emitting devices supplying light to a plant,
wherein a controller operates the at least two light emitting devices to emit light towards the plant under one of a plurality of different conditions, wherein each different condition comprises a different wavelength, a different radiation intensity, a different emission timing, or a combination thereof, configured to control a type and a content of a phytochemical in the plant, wherein the controller selects one of the plurality of different conditions for the light emitted by the at least two light emitting devices based on data indicating a type of the plant, a desired size of the plant, and a growth stage of the plant, and wherein the operation is varied such that the light source module emits a first type of light in a first different condition that is selected to increase the content of the phytochemical in the plant without encouraging additional plant growth, and the light source module emits a second type of light in a second different condition that is selected to increase the content of the phytochemical in the plant and encourage additional plant growth.
