Abstract
All treatments were kept at 28â¯Â±â¯1â¯Â°C and 80-85% RH. The combination of 2,4-PDCA and EthylBloc Sachet caused the longest vase lives of 49.8â¯h with 'Sattabongkot' and 69.0â¯h with 'Saddhabutra', when the control values were 44.4 and 36.0â¯h, respectively. The combination of EthylBloc Sachet and 2,4-PDCA increased water uptake, delayed weight decrease and hue angle change, and reduced petal blackening. Moreover, the treatment caused less ethylene production and less respiration in the flowers than the other treatments. This method is useful for handling in commercial cut lotus flower.
