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 
a on inches oF bes Plants will give ample light
