- Intervention effect Cucumber growth was suppressed at 0.5-2% rhizosphere CO2.
- Intervention effect Total dry weight decreased by up to 80-90% as rhizosphere CO2 increased to 2-5%.
- Intervention effect Leaf area decreased by up to 80-90% as rhizosphere CO2 increased to 2-5%.
- Observation CO2 growth suppression appeared five days after treatment began.
- Intervention effect Photosynthetic rate decreased two hours after 3-5% CO2 treatment began.
- Intervention effect At four hours, photosynthesis under 10% CO2 declined to 85% of pretreatment rate.
- Observation Increasing rhizosphere CO2 suppressed cucumber growth before declining O2 did.
