Flowering Induction
Flowering induction is the process by which a plant transitions from the vegetative growth phase to flower formation. It is determined by both the variety’s genes and environmental conditions, primarily temperature, light, and the plant’s nutritional status. The proper progression of this process is crucial for subsequent yield. Instead of looking for a single “flowering stimulant,” it is important to provide the plant with good light, the right temperature, and balanced fertilization without excess nitrogen.
