Tangeras H.
In Fuchsia x hybrida high day/low night temperature resulted in an unfortunate shoot elongation and a delay in flowering. Ancymidol restricted the elongation effectively and promoted the flowering with at least one week. Spraying the plants with gibberellins (GA(,3) and GA(,4+7)) delayed the flowering with one to two weeks and stimulated shoot elongation. The greatest elongation was observed after use of GA(,4+7) to plants at low day/high night temperature. This may indicate that the endogenous gibberellin content is low at this temperature combination.
