Effects of different light quality on the formation of female flowers and flowering time

Treatment	First female flower located node	Total female flower numbers in 15 nodes	Days from transplanting to first female flowering
R2B1 (Red light:blue light = 2:1)	7.20 ± 0.23b	2.70 ± 0.13a	21.85 ± 0.17b
R4B1 (Red light:blue light = 4:1)	8.03 ± 0.19a	2.32 ± 0.10b	22.53 ± 0.12a

a,b: Statistically significant variations of mean values at different sampling points (ANOVA, p < 0.05) were indicated with different letters. Means denoted by the same letter did not differ significantly at p < 0.05
