ISHS Acta Horticulturae 64: Symposium on Production of Potted Plants and Cut Flowers

USE OF PHOTOPERIOD IN THE GREENHOUSE PRODUCTION OF CHLOROPHYTUM WITH RUNNERS

Author:   P. Allen Hammer
Abstract:
Runner formation in Chlorophytum comosum 'Vitattum' can be controlled by photoperiod. Daylengths ≤12 hours reduced the time required for visible runner formation from 34 weeks (18 hour daylength) to 9 weeks. Three weeks of 8 hour daylengths was the minimum number of short days required to reduce the days to visible runner formation.
