TRIALS FOR REDUCING THE NECESSARY TEMPERATURE IN THE CULTIVATION OF PROGRAMMED CHRYSANTHEMUMS - PRELIMINARY RESULTS |
| Author: | G. Pergola |
| Abstract:
In the cultivation of programmed chrysanthemus considerably high minimum temperature are recommended, 16°–18°, too expensive for the present price of fuel oil. The results obtained in cultivating the "Super White" chrysanthemum with lower minimums of temperature, 10°–13°–16° variously combined in the three different periods of cultivation are reported here. In the environmental conditions of the Ligurian "Riviera di Ponente" it is possible to save fuel and obtain a production of good quality. | |
