Other claims from this paper (11)
- Observation At planting, plug plants weighed less than runner plants.
- Observation Sugarbaby plugs were larger than Festival plugs at planting.
- Observation The initial growth difference between plugs and runners persisted to day 94.
- Observation The share of dry matter in leaves rose from 59 to 70% over time.
- Observation The share of dry matter in roots fell from 21 to 10% over time.
- Intervention effect Plug plants yielded only 60% of runner plant yield through day 109.
- Observation Festival yielded more than Sugarbaby.
- Mechanism Yield differences among treatments reflected differences in fruit set.
- Mechanism Authors suggest the low plug yield probably reflects their small size at planting.
- Recommendation Tips for larger containers should be harvested earlier to maximize root growth.
- Observation Earlier harvesting for larger containers will probably extend propagation time from four to five weeks to eight to ten weeks.
