| Midville, Georgia: Later Maturity Cotton Strains Performance, 2003, Irrigated |
||||||||
| A later maturing
cotton strains experiment was planted at this location on May 15, 2003. However, extensive damage from soil erosion and water- |
||||||||
| logged soil
conditions from excessive rainfall caused plant stunting and considerable variation in performance among plots within the test. After |
||||||||
| careful analysis
and review, it is the opinion of the editors that the results of this trial would not reflect the performance potential of all test entries. |
||||||||
| Since results
from this plot area could be misleading if used in making decisions concerning variety selection, harvest data was not taken. |
||||||||
