| This Week's Notes: Week 49 - Warm falls such as this one are why it is important to plant very vigorous varieties like Monet later than varieties such as Freedom. We finished Monet within the desired height range, but it required a large amount of growth regulator, even with the delayed planting. Compare these Monet to the way are Success is finishing. Monet has larger bracts and are more vigorous at the end of the crop, so the cool temperatures do not have as much effect on bract development compared to Success. | ||
