Popis: Societal Impact Statement Advancements in our ability to rapidly detect plant responses to stress are necessary to improve crop management practices and meet the global challenge of food security. Using optical approaches to detect plant stress before symptoms become apparent has great potential, but these approaches lack testing in multiple‐stress environments and fail to fully exploit the data collected. Using hyperspectral data from lettuce, we show that optical measurements can provide growers with important stress‐related information to inform crop management practices. We suggest that integrating this technology into protected agrosystems, such as greenhouses, could greatly improve crop quality and yield. Summary Tools to detect and predict stress pre‐visually are essential to optimally manage agrosystems. Here, we investigated the capability of reflectance spectroscopy to characterize responses of asymptomatic crop leaves under multi‐stress conditions. Full range (350–2,500 nm) reflectance measurements and traditional plant stress responses were collected on lettuce leaves under the combination of different supplemental light types and intensities, fertilization and salinity. Partial least‐squares discriminate analysis and regression modeling and spectral indices were employed to characterize plant responses to multiple stress conditions, both alone and in combination. Spectral profiles (400–800 nm + 1,900–2,200 nm) of individuals grown under variable environments were statistically different (p
