Since chlorophyll is green, colors on the opposite side of the color spectrum are most efficient for plant growth including red and blue. Light is a type of energy and it varies based on the wavelength of the color. Ultraviolet has the shortest wavelength so it has a higher energy, this is followed by violet, blue, green, yellow, and lastly red which has the longest wavelength and is least energetic.
