Photon source for promoting the growth and maturation rate of members of the plantae and protista kingdoms

A method for regulating photosynthetic efficiency in members of the Plantae and Protista Kingdoms, comprising:

• positioning an electromagnetic spectrum stroboscopic photon source proximate to said members of the Plantae and Protista Kingdoms;
• producing a plurality of micro-doses of intense pulsed light with said electromagnetic spectrum stroboscopic photon source in random or synchronized sequences, each micro-dose having an exposure time from about 0.01 milliseconds to about 10 milliseconds within an electromagnetic spectrum range from about 50 nm to about 2200 nm;
• wherein each micro-dose comprises a pulse cycle comprising an energy trigger pulse, a flash in which instantaneous PPF is reached, and a decay period where PPF returns to zero;
• and
• wherein the energy trigger pulse initiates ionization of inert gas within said stroboscopic photon source with a trigger pulse width of 10 μsec to 350 μsec for a strobe light with an input of 3 to 400 watts (W) and an output of 450 to 8,500 watts (W) in peak radiant flux, which includes light produced in the visible and electromagnetic spectrum (Red, Far-Red, IR, Green, Blue, UVA. UVB).
