White light would be universal, but if you had to choose a color, and the color of the plant is green, then green light would not help it photosynthesize the easiest, because green light is reflected from these plants. Just like red light would be reflected from red plants, it probably wouldn't be the best to use

Green light is the least useful to photosynthesis. The best evidence for this is that most plants appear green under white light. The green light is either reflected from the plant or passes through, allowing us to see it. The other colors present in the white light are absorbed.

Green.

The reason plants appear green to us is because they reflect green light, and absorb most of the other wavelengths.

The color green.

That is because the plants use most of the the other colors of the visible light spectra, but reflects the green light, and therefore we can see them as green.
