Abstract

Terminal, unbranched Acer rubrum L. ‘Red Sunset’ softwood stem cuttings were rooted on 16 June 1980. Treatments consisted of an 18.0 N-2.6 P-10.0 K Osmocote (5.4 kg m −3) amended medium, a 20.0 N-8.6 P-16.6 K (200 mg l −1 N) liquid fertilizer applied every 3 days after rooting occurred, or a control medium containing no fertilizer. Cuttings were rooted and grown under natural daylength or under natural daylength plus a 4-h night interruption. Fertilizer in itself had no effect on shoot length. Shoot growth was enhanced when plants were rooted and grown under a night-interrupted photoperiod.
