What lies behind the purple windows, or the collapse of another conspiracy theory
In recent years, many have begun to notice that the windows of some city apartments are illuminated with a strange purple light. As a rule, the number of apartments with such illumination increases in winter, but such illumination is hardly associated with New Year's special effects. Upon closer examination, it becomes clear that the light does not come from a lantern with colored glasses and not from a garland, but from some lighting devices that are powerful enough. There are many options for what kind of light it is and why it is needed, and at the same time one is more interesting than the other.
The most popular version among the people is that the owners of apartments with purple light give some signals. There are people who are just sure that behind such windows there are places of debauchery that customers recognize from afar, as in Europe by the light of red lanterns.
Another version says that sectarians gather in apartments with purple lighting, and quite unkind religious movements. In fact, who else can withstand such illumination, if not a gang of rabid fanatics worshipping a Barbie doll?
Someone even put forward a version in social networks that the unusual light is somehow connected with unearthly civilizations and purple windows, visible from afar, serve as landing lights and landmarks for UFO pilots.
But the most popular version is that in "bad" apartments, embarrassing decent citizens with unnatural light, there are drug dens where narcotic substances of plant origin are produced and immediately consumed.
It turns out that the supporters of this version are as close as possible to solving the mystery, although they are too dramatic. Purple and pink windows belong to lovers of indoor plants and summer residents who grow seedlings on window sills.
In winter, a mystical light appears in the windows of those who want to extend the daylight hours to capricious southern plants, and closer to spring, gardeners and gardeners who are preparing for the season in advance "light up".
Special phytolamps emitting two different types of light are used to support plants. In the range of 600-700 nanometers, the red part of the backlight works, providing a special light for the development of the root system and the appearance of inflorescences, and the blue light of 400-500 nanometers works for the benefit of the green mass. The combination of these two types of lighting creates the same otherworldly light that haunts many.
By the way, when we talked about drug dens, we weren't joking about the fact that vigilant citizens almost guessed right. Growing plants prohibited by law at home does not differ much from keeping lemons and tomato seedlings on the windows. It is quite possible that one of the "nerds" uses purple light for criminal purposes, but this is not a very reasonable solution.
Firstly, the unusual light attracts attention, and secondly, the products grown on the window are unlikely to be suitable for the production of narcotic substances. Look at how Mike Tyson is doing, who, after retiring from sports, started growing marijuana on his ranch in California.
