How A Plant Grows: A Plant’s Perspective

Posted in: Uncategorized

This will be a 4-part series looking in detail at how plants grow and respond to their environment. Plants have been on earth a long time and know what to do under all circumstances, we just need to understand them, and help them approach their growth potential. Canola, peas, and wheat will be the crop plants used as model throughout the series. The role of nutrients in crop growth will be included where relevant when exploring physiological processes common during the crop life cycle.
