This is too weird and complex to summarize well. Without copy/paste I'm going to let you google it and read it yourself. Well worth it.
"Artificial Photosynthesis Can Produce More Food in the Dark Than With Sunshine"
Acetate created in the dark to replace sunshine to grow plants. No kidding.
Good news network has the article.
Hmmmm.... VERY interesting, but this article makes me want to get details from the researchers' paper.
Researchers used an “electrolyzer system” to turn carbon dioxide, electricity and water into acetate. Acetate is the main compound found in many household products, including vinegar.
The electrolyzer process effectively turned 57 percent of carbon molecules in carbon dioxide into acetate, University of Delaware researchers said in a statement. The resulting acetate mixture was then used as food to grow plants in the dark.

Crazy, isn't it? I have never heard of anything like it.
By the way, Percys doesn't allow copy/paste. Copywright issues. If I could copy/paste I would have dropped half a dozen paragraphs because it's so friggin cool!
