Wickel H. | Boerner R.
Spraying of thin morphactine solutions /1.1 and 2.2 ppm of active ingredients/ effected an increased growth of lateral shoots and, in this manner, resulted in higher yields as compared to check plants. When 6 - 10 shoots were attained, per plant, every additional shoot caused an increase in yields of 6.3 flowers per 100 plants. Higher yields can be attained by morphactine treatment only if environmental conditions provide for a high biomass production/low temperature adapted to light intensity/. The quality of flowers/ strength of stems/ is influenced in a positive manner by morphactines. Application of morphactines resulted in a slight set-back of precocity.
