Figure 3, B shows that the flowering rate of the plants in plat 1, which were growing at a more rapid rate than those of plat 3 (fig. 1, B) during July was greater than plat 3, but did not continue at the same relative rate later in the season. During the week August 20 to 27, the rate of flower production in plat 3 became equal to that.
