The summer solstice in the Northern Hemisphere is around June 21 and is the beginning of summer. The winter solstice is about December 21 and is the beginning of winter.
The question is asking how the photoperiod is different between the summer-fall period and the winter-spring period.
For this question : How does the photoperiod differ between the two solstices?
wouldn't the solstices be spring and fall?

In the summer-fall period we experience the longest photoperiod of the year. During the winter-spring period we experience the shortest photoperiod of the year.
Is this right? I don't really get it:-(

The overall photoperiod doesn't differ in the summer-fall season and the winter-spring season.
On June 22, the days begin getting shorter in the Northern Hemisphere. The day length is the shortest at the end of the fall season on December 21. They begin getting longer on December 22 and continue getting longer until June 21.
