that would allow MH for fresh market. This could dramatically increase production efficiencies, and potentially revolutionize the fresh-market blueberry industry. The objective of this research was to determine the potential for MH southern highbush
lighting treatments for 5 mo. z The improvement in production efficiency using ICL is supported by Frantz et al. (1998) , who reported that cowpea grown with ICL yielded 50% of the edible biomass of plants grown under OHL while consuming only 10% as much
Subirrigation, such as the ebb-and-flow culture (EBB) system, is a popular method in containerized plant production for controlling the application of fertilizer, water, and pesticides, and for improving production efficiency ( Dole et al., 1994

represent less than optimal production efficiency, contributing to higher than necessary production costs and increased potential for surface water degradation due to NO 3 -N enrichment. The higher NO 3 -N losses, volume, and concentration from the FPN were
