Overhead mist revolutionized the propagation industry by providing reliable means to manage transpirational water losses by leafy stem cuttings. This system slows transpiration of cuttings primarily by decreasing leaf temperatures through

. Orchard trees were spaced 5 × 4 m and were drip irrigated as needed throughout the growing season. The treated trees did not exhibit any invisible symptoms of Ni or other nutrient deficiencies and midsummer leaf concentration was within the sufficient

-cell trays of soilless growing medium were watered or primed with 20 mL of 0, 1, or 10 to 90 m m sucrose in 10 m m increments. Moisture loss was quantified by weighing samples after watering air-dried medium. Wilting symptoms, loss of turgor causing

( Munns and Tester, 2008 ). During the osmotic phase, salt concentrations surrounding the roots reach a threshold level that negatively impacts plant water relations and reduces leaf expansion and new shoot growth. Curiously, shoot growth is more sensitive

system. As the trees grew, they were topped at a height of ≈700 mm. During the summer, it was necessary to irrigate twice a day to maintain tree leaf turgor. Irrigation volume was adjusted throughout the growing season to minimize but not obviate drainage

poor-quality plants ( Liptay et al., 1998 ). Barrett and Nell (1982) showed that increasing the irrigation interval reduced the height of poinsettia, but also decreased bract, leaf, and total shoot dry weight. Just like PGR application, timing of WD

, glucopyranose units ranging in number from 305 to 15,300 ( Fengel and Wegener, 2003 ) are polymerized to form cellulose chains. This biopolymer imparts tensile strength to the wall to resist turgor pressure and to allow for growth habit. Lignins also impart

it survives in our region only with supplemental irrigation; it is the first in a greenhouse to exhibit a “visual” loss of leaf turgor when water-stressed. Studies with E. sativa and L. sativum germinated in municipal wastes, inclusive of EC 7
