Other claims from this paper (16)
- Association Vase life depended on cultivar and vase solution.
- Intervention effect Commercial preservative solutions prolonged vase life.
- Intervention effect Commercial preservative solutions reduced the decrease in fresh weight relative to controls.
- Intervention effect Commercial preservative solutions gave a smaller increase in water uptake.
- Observation Queen 2000 had the shortest vase life in distilled water, 7.1 days.
- Observation Forever Young had the longest vase life in distilled water, 15.3 days.
- Observation Black Baccara, Classy, and Charlotte were most prone to bent neck and petal-tip blackening.
- Intervention effect Exogenous ethylene did not affect vase life.
- Intervention effect Exogenous ethylene lowered water uptake.
- Intervention effect Silver thiosulfate significantly improved vase life in five cultivars.
- Intervention effect 1-MCP did not improve vase life over the control.
- Intervention effect More than one stem per vase reduced vase life and water uptake.
- Intervention effect Ten stems per vase impeded water uptake by up to 10.6 mL per stem per day.
- Intervention effect Longer dry storage before placing stems in a vase reduced vase life.
- Intervention effect Recutting stems immediately before placing them in a vase minimized the decline in vase life.
