Abstract
Abstract Gibberellic acid (GA), applied at 10 to 30 ppm early in stage III of fruit growth, resulted in canned sweet cherries, cv. Rainier, that were a clear golden color with nearly clear syrup, and were firmer and larger than untreated fruit. The differences appeared to be due more to a change in fruit characteristics than to a simple delay in maturity.
