Environment
The temperature values for each day of the production period are shown in the form of a histogram.
Temperature is entered either as a daily min and max, or an average daily temperature. These values can be modified by the user.
Examples of ‘cold’, ‘hot’ and ‘normal’ environmental conditions are given in the program.
RH can be calculated for each day of the production period using typical values for the area, or the daily RH can be manually entered. The calculated values make use of the atmospheric pressure at the pertinent time of year, the wet and dry bulb thermometer readings and the temperature values entered.
The daily light/dark cycles can simply be adjusted using a histogram. The option to ignore the light/dark cycles is given with a checkbox.
