Does anybody out there have any information or any links to information on the production of poinsettias with low fall temperatures.I had wanted to catch the seminar in Ohio but had to leave earlier than I had anticipated.

We are pleased you are interested in trying out production at lower temperatures, the benefits seem to be very strong and risks minimal if you follow the program!

One sure way to get the information would be to contact OFA to purchase the CD of this talk, these are available for anyone interested and more information is available at the OFA website http://www.ofa.org/index2.html or at the following link: http://www.netsymposium.com/index.php?select=association&data=47 which can provide you the direct recording of the session from short course. In addition, there will be an article coming out in the trade magazines this September about the cold trial written by Dr. Jim Faust and Roger Kehoe, look for it with the detail as well.

In our 2007 catalog we talked about growing at cooler temperatures and identified our genetics along with the suggested program of how to manage temperatures for energy efficiency, if you do not have a copy of the catalog we can certainly send it out but will need a mailing address, etc. to process this.

Ecke, could I get a copy of the 2007 catalog?
