Micro-greens or sprouts are commonly used in the diet of many cultures owing to their health benefits. In this work we use a non-chemical solution method stimulate germination and growth seeds for sprouting, based on non-thermal plasma discharge (NTP). Such technology could represent an alternative not only reducing production costs growing micro-greens but also as pre-sowing slow germinating s...

Growing degree day models can successfully predict the performance of gibberellin-inhibiting plant growth regulators (PGRs) applied to cool-season golf putting greens. These models are effective because metabolism or degradation of PGRs was found to be directly related to air temperature. Relative clipping yield of turfgrasses treated with PGRs follow a sinewave model with a period of growth su...
