Studies were carried out to elucidate the effect of temperature, glasshouse forcing date and $GA_3$ on the growth and flowering of pot Hydrangea macrophylla Ser. The plant height was elongated in the $5^{\circ}C$ treatments as 38 cm compared with $20^{\circ}C$ treatment as 6.7 cm, and stem length showed the similar results. The leaf length and width was broadened in the lower temperature, and stem diameter showed the same tendency. The first flowering date in the $15^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$ treatment shortened markedly than $5^{\circ}C$ treatment. Days to flowering date of $5^{\circ}C$ was 161 day, while it shortened as 88 day in the $15^{\circ}C$ treatment. The flowering rate was 75.8~90.7% in the temperature. The plant height was elongated in the late glasshouse forcing date, and the leaf length and width showed the similar tendency. The plant height increased in the higher concentration of $GA_3$ compared to the control, and leaf length and width showed the similar results. The first flowering day was advanced by 7 days in the $GA_3$ $50mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ treatment which had been transferred to greenhouse on Dec. 30 compared with the control of which first flowering day was March 17, and the days to first flowering was conspicuously shortened in the late glasshouse forcing treatment. The width of flower cluster was increased in the $GA_3$ at Dec. 30 glasshouse forcing treatment. The flowering rate was markedly decreased as 62.3% in the control of Nov. 15 treatment, but was increased as 97.9% of $GA_3$ $50mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ of Jan. 15 treatment.

A new spary chrysanthemum (Dendranthema grandiflorum) cultivar 'Yellow Eye' was developed from a cross between 'Angela' and 'Angaesoguk' followed by selections of seedlings and lines at the Flower Research Institute, Gyeongnam Agricultural Research and Extension Services (ARES) from 2003 to 2007. Its characteristics were investigated three times from 2005 to 2007 under forcing culture in spring and retarding culture in autumn. The natural flowering time of 'Yellow Eye' was October 24th, but year-round production was possible by shading and lighting. Its flower was 3.3 cm in diameter, and had 31.7 petals and 27.9 flowers per stem in autumn. It has pollenless, single type flowers with yellow petals and green flower center. To flower in under the short day condition, for 'Yellow Eye' was about 41 days in spring, and 'Yellow Eye' showed a vase life of 23.1 days in autumn. This cultivar was registered for a commercialization in 2007. 'Yellow Eye' would be cultured under the greenhouse and rain shelter condition in Korea.

This study was conducted to determine proper varieties of cucumber at four different cultural seasons. Eight varieties of cucumber from four varietal groups were grown in two types of plastic house, 1-2W type and postless type, at four different cultural seasons, retarding culture, forcing culture, semi-forcing culture and summer culture. Number of female flowers, male flowers, aborted female flowers, leaves and fruits per plant and fresh weight of fruits per plant were observed. The results were listed as follows. Varietal group of Nakhap or Hukjinjoo and ibchubakdadakioi showed better growth and higher yield at retarding culture. Kyeusalichungjangoi, ibchubdadakioi and Gaulnakhapoi could be recommended as proper varieties at forcing culture. Varietal group of Chungjang or Nakhap showed relatively higher yield at semi-forcing culture. Naboochungjangoi and Gaulnakhapoi were recommended as proper varieties at summer culture.

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of raising seedling methods of cold water, low night temperature, and abandoned mine on forcing culture of strawberry. The results were as follows ;1. $17^{\circ}C$ cold water alone and cold water plus 8-hour short day treatments significantly accelerated the flower bud differentiation of Nyoho cultivar to 11 and 15 days, respectively, comparing to common soil raising seedling.2. The date of flower bud differentiation of Nyoho cultivar as influenced by cold water treatment the 17th, the 13th and the 10th of September, respectively, when the seedlings were treated on the 10th of September and on the 25th and the 10th of August in 1991. In 1992, data showed that the flower bud differentiation dates were the 4th and the 2nd of September and the 29th of August when cold water treatment was done on the 10th of August and on the 25th and the 10th of July.3. The first harvest date when Nyoho cultivar was treated by cold water for 30days from Jul. 25 was Nov. 10, this implying that the harvesting day could advanced to 19 days comparing to that by the common soil raising seedling method. The resulting yield was recorded to 21.94 ton per hectare.4. Regardless of the starting date of the treatment, $13^{\circ}C$ low night temperature plus 8-plus short day treatments for 20 days required 17 days to differentiate the flower bud of Nyoho cultivar. Harvesting day could be advanced to 59 days comparing to that by the common raising seedling method when the seedling was treated on July 25, this resulting in increasing the total yield obtained by April 14 of following year to 8.25 ton per hectare.5. When the seedlings of both Nyoho and Hokowase cultivars were raised under the condition of abandoned mine, flowering and harvest date were earlier by the treatment for 20 days than that for 30 days or 40 days. The highest yiesd obtained was recorded in Nyoho cultivar or 1.88 ton per hectare.

In order to improve quality and to accelerate blooming time in potted Oncidium 'Aloha', foliar spray of $GA_3$, BA, zeatin, and kinetin were applied on June 1 and June 15. The plant growth regulators did affect the improvement of number of peduncles, pedicels and florets, and shortened flowering time. Especially, number of peduncles and of florets were remarkably increased by foliar application of BA solution. And the flower opening time were shortened 26 days by 100mg/L BA treatment compare with control.

Experiments of local cooling and heating on crown and root zone of forcing cultivation of strawberry 'Seolhyang' using heat pump and root pruning before planting were conducted. During the daytime, the crown surface temperature of the crown local cooling treatment was maintained at $18{\sim}22^{\circ}C$. This is suitable for flower differentiation, while those of control and root zone local cooling treatment were above $30^{\circ}C$. Budding rate of first flower clusters and initial yields were in the order of crown local cooling, root zone local cooling and control in root pruning plantlet and non pruning plantlet, except for purchase plantlet. Those of root pruning plantlet were higher than those of non pruning plantlet. These trends were evident in the yield of the first flower cluster until February 14, 2018, and the effect of local cooling and root pruning decreased from March 9, 2018. The budding rates of the second flower cluster according to the local cooling and root pruning treatments were not noticeable compared to first flower cluster but showed the same tendency as that of first flower cluster. In the heating experiment, root zone local heating(root zone $20^{\circ}C$+inside greenhouse $5^{\circ}C$) and crown local heating(crown $20^{\circ}C$+inside greenhouse $5^{\circ}C$) saved 59% and 65% of heating fuel, respectively, compared to control(inside greenhouse $9^{\circ}C$). Considering the electric power consumption according to the heat pump operation, the heating costs were reduced by 55% and 61%, respectively.

This study was investigated to know about the stages of flower bud development and the effects of natural and artificial cold treatment on flowering of herbaceous peony. Developing buds of Paeonja lactㅑflora Pall. var. Taebaek were observed since Jun. 17 and peony plants were forced since Nov. 27 in the green house with two weeks interval, and other plants were forced after cold treatment in $5^{\circ}C$ for 1, 2, 4, 6weeks. Differentiation of vegetable part in peony buds was started in early June, and floral part was differentiated in September and their differentiation was continued to shooting in early spring. Buds of peony were sprouted and flowered when it was forced on Dec. 4. Days to shooting were decreased with delay of forcing time from early to late of December, significantly. Two weeks for cold treatment were enough to break dormancy of peony and days to shooting of the cold treated were significantly shorter than the untreated in the same forcing times
