"Effects of air temperature and humidity in the greenhouse on the growth of semi-forced cucumber _eNatsunokaori'. Air temperature of 30degC and 60% relative humidity promoted the development of fruit and suppressed the development of lateral branches. In pinching cultivation, air temperature of 25degC and 40% relative humidity promoted the development of lateral branches by suppressing fruit growth. However, the percentage of marketable fruits and total number of fruits where increased by air temperature of 25degC and 40% relative humidity conditions. In wire-training cultivation, air temperature of 30degC and 60% relative humidity suppressed unnecessary branches, simplifying the work of training the plants."
