- Association Gladiolus stem elongation was positively associated with temperature.
- Association Sunlight negatively correlated with stem growth during midday in maize.
- Association Sunlight negatively correlated with stem growth during midday in gladiolus.
- Observation The sunlight growth depression was about four times greater in gladiolus than maize.
- Intervention effect Light white cotton shading removed the depressing sunlight effect on maize.
- Association Relative humidity was only slightly associated with growth rates, with no significant effect observed.
- Observation The approximate minimum temperature for growth was 40° F.
