Allan Fulton; Richard Buchner; Cyndi Gilles; et al. HortTechnology 2001. doi:10.21273/horttech.11.4.609

Other claims from this paper (7)

Method / resource A 10-min or longer equilibration period was suitable for accurate stem water potential measurements.
Method / resource About 10 leaves with 10-min equilibration reduced time-related SWP measurement error to 0.05 MPa.
Recommendation One leaf per tree from 10 trees should provide an accurate orchard water status mean where tree growth and health are uniform.
Recommendation More variable orchards may need a larger sample.
Observation Midmorning and midday SWP showed similar seasonal patterns and irrigation responses.
Method / resource Prediction errors up to 0.3 MPa occurred with unusual VPD changes.
Recommendation Direct midday SWP measurement remains recommended.
