Garden with Insight v1.0 Help: Plant draw meristem group
Meristem axillary branching index: The probability (as a percent) that any axillary (side) meristem (bud) will create
a new vegetative branch on any day if it is far enough away from the apical (terminal) meristem to
be outside the range of apical dominance.
Leaves and axillary meristems are alternate: If 'yes', creation
of leaves and axillary (side) meristems on any stem is alternate (one to the left, one to the right, etc). If
'no', leaves and axillary meristems are opposite (in pairs). Whorled
leaves/meristems (more than two) are not simulated here.
Meristem branching is sympodial: If 'yes', each apical meristem creates only one internode, and
an axillary meristem on that internode develops to create the next 'main' stem. Tomato plants grow this
way. If 'no', growth is monopodial: each apical meristem creates a series of internodes.
Meristem strength of apical dominance (as node distance):
The distance (number of stem internodes) an axillary (side) meristem (bud) must be from the apical
(terminal) meristem before it can consider creating a side branch. In real plants a more subtle hormone
gradient prevents the development of axillary buds.
Meristem probability to become reproductive when get flowering
signal: When a determinate plant enters the reproductive phase all meristems are dedicated to reproduction, so this probability is 1.0.
In an indeterminate plant some meristems continue to produce vegetative parts, and this probability is
between zero and one.
Axillary bud 3D object: The 3D object used to draw axillary (side) buds on the plant's stems.
Axillary bud 3D object scale at full size: The scale for the 3D object used to draw axillary (side)
buds on the plant's stems.
Axillary bud back face color: The back face (facing out) color for the 3D object used to draw
axillary (side) buds on the plant's stems.
Axillary bud front face color: The front face (facing in) color for the 3D object used to draw
axillary (side) buds on the plant's stems.
