| Abstract:
Seven successional plantings were made at four-weekly intervals from September with the varieties UC157 and Jersey Giant. From four weeks after the first planting successional destructive harvests were made at four-weekly intervals until autumn. Plant growth fitted a logistic growth model with a heat unit time scale. The shoot root ratio increased until the February harvest when it started to decrease. This pattern was followed by all plantings. | |
