Hydrogen cynamide has been shown by other researchers to improve the amount and uniformity of budburst in grapevines in warm areas with inadequate chilling, such as California's Coachella Valley. A trial was conducted in 1985 to learn whether hydrogen cyanamide would also improve budburst in cooler areas, especially on cane-pruned vines of varieties that have budburst failure in the middle of the canes. The trial also included one Zinfandel vineyard to determine if the chemical would affect budburst on a spurpruned variety.
