Abstract/Contents: | Discusses water use during the initial establishment period of sprigs. States that "a supplmental form or irrigation that provides a '24/7' approach to irrigation coverage [is]...a sure-fire way to keep...sprigs or seed moist enough at all times to assure grapid germination and seeding/sprig establishment." Details the Turtle Bay Misting System used at Turtle Bay Resort in Hawaii, and the Mauna Kea Misting System used at Mauna Kea/Hapuna resort in Hawaii. Concludes that "the use of this unique form of misting system for growing-in sprigs or seed offers a simple way to consistently provide needed moisture during the critical portion of early establishment." |
