Abstract
Greenhouse cultivation of tulip was investigated with the aim of finding out whether continuous flowering can be obtained during the period of peak demand.
Bulbs precooled for 0 to 120 days were planted on five different planting dates spaced 15 days apart, starting end-November.
Three varieties were used: early flowering Most Miles, medium-to-early flowering Asta Nielsen and late flowering Renown.
The results obtained showed that by combining the planting of precooled and non-precooled bulbs from the three investigated varieties, flowers can be harvested non-stop for a period of 80 days between January 14th and April 2nd.
