Cucumber crop comparison
Results:
The SAI treated plants had a 20x greater plant volume (vine lingth x vine width x vine hight), and the largest leaves are 3.3x larther than the largest leaves on the control plants. (See photo 1.)
On average, the SAI treated plants are producing 2.8 more fruits per plant, and each fruit is 3.9x heavier, thus the SAI treated plants are producing 10.9x mor fruitweight per plant.
Also, in blind taste tests, the bigger cucumbers were preferred by all taste testers. (better texture, less bitterness.
