Yes - Low vernalisation
Maintaining moisture above level 3 in Stage 1 and 2 is critical for germination and seedling development. Responsive to weekly ancymidol 2 ppm spray or ancymidol 2 ppm/daminozide 2,500 ppm tank mix beginning 3 weeks from sowing.
requirement, only 4 weeks at 50-55°F (10-13°C) from 5 to 6 true leaves onwards.
Yes - duration of 8 to 10 weeks; juvenility min. 10 to 12 true leaves
No
Use a medium covering of coarse-grade vermiculite to improve seedling uniformity.
No
Avoid high EC in early plug stage – maximum 0.5 in Stages 1 and 2. Grow at less than 13 hours to keep vegetative. Spray damp-off fungicide. For forcing info: See Perennials Forcing Guide Critical Daylength: 11 hours for 100% flowering but up to 3 weeks faster flowering at ≥13 hours than shorter photoperiods. For forcing info: See Perennials Forcing Guide. 1 to 2 seeds for 288/3 to 4 for 84. Plug PGRs: For Spring production, no PGRs needed. For Summer production under long day conditions, can use daminozide (1,500 to 2,500 ppm spray). Short day bulk not needed for Autumn sales. Critical Daylength: 14 hours. For forcing info: See Perennials Forcing Guide. 1 to 2 seeds for 288/4 to 6 seeds for 84. Plug PGRs: For Spring production, no PGRs needed. For Summer production under long day conditions, can use daminozide (1,500 to 2,500 ppm spray). Short day bulk not needed for Autumn sales. Critical Daylength: 13 hours. Short day (10 hours) bulk needed for forcing. For forcing info: See Perennials Forcing Guide. 1 to 2 seeds for 288/3 to 4 seeds for 84. Plug PGRs: For Spring production, no PGRs needed. For Summer production under long day conditions, can use daminozide (1,500 to 2,500 ppm spray). Critical Daylength: 12.5 hours. Short day (at 10 hours) bulk needed for forcing. For forcing info: See Perennials Forcing Guide. 1 seed for 288/3 to 4 seeds for 84. Plug PGRs: For Spring production, no PGRs needed. For Summer production under long day conditions, can use daminozide (1,500 to 2,500 ppm spray). Short day bulk not needed for Autumn sales. For forcing info: See Perennials Forcing Guide.
