Paclobutrazol Optimizes Leaf Size, Vine Length and Plant Grade of Golden Pothos (Epipremnum aureum) on Totems
Abstract
Two experiments were conducted to determine a Bonzi (0.4% paclobutrazol) rate that would optimize leaf size, vine length and plant quality of golden pothos [Epipremnum aureum (Linden & André) Bunt.] on totem poles in 20 cm (3.4 liter) pots. In Experiment 1, six rooted pothos cuttings were transplanted around a totem and fertilized with 10 g of 19N–2.6P–10K (0.35 oz 19–6–12) Osmocote. After one week, each pot was treated with a 250 ml (8.5 fl oz) drench of water containing Bonzi at 0, 4, 8, 12, or 16 mg a.i. (paclobutrazol). Four mg of paclobutrazol per pot yielded the most desirable plants, based on average leaf size, vine length and plant grade. Experiment 2 was designed to refine the paclobutrazol application rate. Ten rooted cuttings of pothos were transplanted around a totem and fertilized at 10 g 19N–2.6P–10K (19–6–12) Osmocote. After one week, each pot was treated with a 100 ml drench of water containing paclobutrazol at 0, 1.3, 2.6, 4.0, 5.3, 6.6, or 7.9 mg. Paclobutrazol applied at a rate of 5.3 mg produced optimum leaf size and vine length and highest plant grades.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
