Abstract

Seeds of `Majestic Giant Blue Shade' and `Medallion Blue/Blotch' were initially begun in plug trays and later transplanted into flats of 32s. Observations included percent germination, rate of emergence, plant heights before treatment of plant growth regulators (PGR), plant fresh weight, plant dry weight, plant height after treatments, and visual appearance. PGR treatments included paclobutrazol at 16 and 25 ppm, uniconazole at 2 and 4 ppm, and B-Nine as the control. `Majestic Giant' had a higher percent germination rate and rate of emergence than `Medallion'. Overall growth of Medallion seemed to be behind by ≈5 days when compared to that of `Majestic Giant'. The `Medallion' group showed more of a response to PGR treatments than `Majestic Giant'.
