Plants must be given additional light between Septem- 
ber 1 and May 1 regardless if they are in seed flats or 
in the bench. If the plants are not lighted while in small 
pots, they develop a rosette of leaves and growth of the 
stem and flowers is delayed. Plants should be lighted 
until the first flowers show color. 
Low wattage bulbs will suffice for additional light. On 
a four-foot bench, 40-watt lamps spaced 6 feet apart and 
about 24 inches above the plants will give ample light 
for this crop. 
ADDITIONAL LIGHTING SCHEDULE 
3 hours during the months of September, October, 
March and April. 
4 hours during the months of November and February. 
5 hours during the months of December and January.
