- Recommendation Irrigation should be applied at accumulated reference evapotranspiration intervals below 30 mm.
- Intervention effect Field capacity irrigation increased tiller number and primary stalk extension.
- Intervention effect Field capacity irrigation enhanced dry matter yield regardless of substrate volume.
- Observation Intermediate substrate volume of 73 cm3 was best for field establishment.
- Association Larger substrate volumes produced leafy seedlings with high transpiration and increased early death risk under water stress.
- Association Small substrate volume produced small roots and water reservoirs, lowering drought survival.
