| This Week's Notes: Week 48 - Plum Pudding can be difficult. It is a strong grower and we had to use a lot of growth regulators to control it, which we did not want to do because of the naturally small bracts. For Plum Pudding, bract color develops better at lower light levels and we have it under about 1,500 ft. cd., which reduces the amount green markings in the bracts. It might be better to grow this crop on a Monet schedule where it is planted a week later and less growth regulator would be needed. This crop will be salable in four to seven days. | ||
