How's Is Your Color Today?

Remember the days of old, when mum goes to the market to get some seafood? The first time she does when looking for some fishes is to look at the gills. She only gets one that has a specific redness. Not any red cos, there are dull red, dark red, pinkish red ............. But there is only a specific redness that tells her that it is fresh. Similarly, appearance or color is the first indicator of a quality of a product. Now, let's go buy a car. What does the color tells you. A red is hot, a black is cool, a silver is classy and so on and so forth. Actually, colors tells a story.

This is a Chlorophyll Meter. It helps a grower estimates the amount of chlorophyll in a plant. In short, it measures the 'greeness' as 'greeness' is coorelated to chlorophyll.
