CULTURE THAT WORKS
CULTURE THAT WORKS
Growing On • Grows steadily once the branches develop, and exhibits consistent slow growth throughout the crop until color begins. • Apply light PGR when branches are 1-1.5 in. (2.5-4 cm) using Cycocel spray at 500-750 ppm. • Apply more aggressive PGR when branches are 2 in. (5 cm). • Southern Climate: Use 1-2 applications of B-Nine (1,000 ppm)/Cycocel (500 ppm) before September 20. Apply later Cycocel sprays at

Propagation • Roots well; plant from a liner at 24 days. • Apply rooting hormone at the base of cutting. • Start feed program at day 7. • Feed aggressively; failure to feed early enough will result in yellowing and hardening. Early Finished Growth • Pinch early: at day 14-18 from a liner; at day 28 for direct stick. • Breaks begin to grow 5-7 days after pinch. • In low-humidity climates, Florel applications before and/or after pinch may help hasten branching.

500-750 ppm, with last applications by October 10. • Micro Bonzi drenches can begin in early October. Late Growing Stages • Requires continuous feed until finish. • Reduce feed levels if media EC increases too rapidly.

• Requires the finished pH be maintained below 6.6 to prevent magnesium deficiency. This shows up in the form of interveinal chlorosis near the outer part of the leaves about 3/4 of the way up the plant, usually in late October. If this occurs, foliar applications of chelated magnesium can be applied.
