Abstract
Abstract Preharvest applications of Ca(OH) 2 reduced splitting of ‘Lambert’ sweet cherry ( Prunus avium L.) in laboratory trials. Three sequential preharvest sprays of Ca(OH) 2 consistently reduced splitting, while single sprays of Ca(OH) 2 in combination with NAA, ethephon, or B were moderately effective. Ca(OH) 2 was a more effective Ca source than CaCl 2 for reduction of splitting. Ca applications did not affect fruit size, but 3 applications of Ca(OH) 2 increased fruit soluble solids. Chemical names used: (2-chloroethyl)phosphonic acid (ethephon) and 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA).
