Coleus blumei x C. frederici plants, the same clone used at Princeton (3), were propagated by cuttings and grown in a growth chamber under continuous illumination by cool white fluorescent lamps and incandescent bulbs (about 1000 ft-c) at an air temperature of 25 + 1 C. The experimental plants were grown with their roots in 125-ml Erlenmeyer flasks filled with nutrient solution consisting of 1.2 g of Hyponex (Hydroponic Chemical Co., Copley, Ohio) per liter of distilled water. The flasks were refilled with distilled water twice a day at about 0830 EST (Eastern Standard Time) and 1530 EST.
