During the period of lighting they were grown at 65°F night temperature and thereafter at 70°F night temperature. A-Rest treatments (Table 1) were applied at either the 3" stage (the new shoot 3" above the soil surface) or the 6" stage (the new shoot 6" above the soil surface). The plants were in flower on March 6, 1974 (Fig. 1 and 2).
