The occurrence of abnormal trees in a budded cocoa orchard, 2
An experiment to check again the influence of budwood length on the main stem length of its buddings was conducted in the Kaliwining Experiment Garden. As it was reported in this article, the results were unexpectedly different from those reported before; the results showed, that there was no influence of budwood length on the stem length of its buddings. On the other hand, however, by studying some notes related to this experiment, it was concluded, that the replications 3, 5, 13 and 20 of the B treatment (extra long budwood) was experiencing water stress and unfavourable photoperiod, so that their main stems should be shorter than normal. The main stems in the replications 1 and 6 of the A treatment (dwarf budwood), however, became longer than they should be, because of pseudo main stems growth. To get a more reliable result this experiment has to be conducted again
