Abstract
It is generally accepted at the present time that the action of ether upon plants in the early stages of rest, or the resting period, is the nature of an arrest, or complete cessation of growth, and that as a result of this intensified suspension of all activity on the part of the plant, the usual or normal resting period is greatly abridged and the plant is at once thrown into growth when subjected to suitable conditions of temperature, moisture and light. Since deoiduous woody plants are more or less influenced by anesthetics, and probably all plants can be multiplied by cuttings, it was believed that these might also respond to the same chemicals used in breaking or influencing the rest period.
