(I presume that the chlorofylle in the plants needs to be illuminated
by the light of a certain wavelength or above, in order for the
chemical reaction of photosynthesis to take place. This will probably
result in different taste molecules been formed. That's all I know...)
Most plants require red and blue light for proper growth. Plants
grown exclusively under green light would probably die, which would
affect the taste.
