We as growers can get quite fixated on soil and water and fertility. But there's another factor that is so absolutely critical to plants and flower production and that is light, or more precisely photoperiod. 

We all know that light is the foundation of photosynthesis.  What we can sometimes forget is how critical the number of hours of light and dark are to triggering a plant to switch from vegetative growth to flowering.  We drill into that in this episode with Dr. Alicain Carlson from Syngenta Flowers. 

Great companion listening for this episode is Episode 46: 10 Late Season Flower Crops for November Sales with Dave Dowling.
