2009 Florel Experiment

Greenhouse Management students are experimenting with Florel, a plant growth regulator.  Plants treated with Florel are supposed to grow bushier and produce fewer flower buds.  In this way, the plant will continue to grow bigger and not waste its enery in producing flowers.  Half of the plants are treated with Florel, and the other half are untreated.

Students spray their plants with Florel once every three weeks.  Check back to see any growth differences between the control and experimental groups!
