Basic Cotton Crop Development Patterns

Summaries of cotton crop phenology, as a function of heat units (HU, 86/55°F limits) have been developed across a wide range of production conditions in Arizona. Optimum ranges in HU accumulations since January 1 are used to describe planting dates to maintain optimum yield potentials with full seas...

Silvertooth, Jeff Bantlin, Marguerite Agriculture -- Arizona Cotton -- Arizona Cotton -- Physiology Cotton -- Growth regulators Summaries of cotton crop phenology, as a function of heat units (HU, 86/55°F limits) have been developed across a wide range of production conditions in Arizona. Optimum ranges in HU accumulations since January 1 are used to describe planting dates to maintain optimum yield potentials with full season varieties. Basic events such as the occurrence of pinhead squares, squares that are susceptible to pink bollworm, and first bloom are described in terms of HU accumulations since planting. Also, the expected ranges of HU's accumulated since planting that are required to accomplish crop cut -out are shown for three general maturity types of Upland cotton. 1991 text Article http://hdl.handle.net/10150/208324 Cotton: A College of Agriculture Report en_US 370087 Series P-87 College of Agriculture, University of Arizona (Tucson, AZ)
