What does it mean when a plant survives by staying dormant?
Some plants can become dormant until environmental conditions are right for their growth again. A commonly known dormancy period for plants is when deciduous plants become dormant during winter. They loose their leaves because the leaves require a lot of nutrients to continue their work of photosynthesis to produce glucose to be used as a building block for cellulose to create new plant cells (growth). In winter there is not enough light for most deciduous plants to efficiently produce glucose and the leaves become more costly to the plant than they are beneficial. So the plant drops them and stops growing, it becomes dormant until days become longer and warmer (spring). Then it grows new leaves back, begins producing glucose, using nutrients and water, and growing again. The same type of process can occur in many types of plants, not just deciduous trees and shrubs. Bulb producing flowers like some orchids and desert flowers will let the entire above ground part of the plant die and only remain as a root underground until conditions are right again. Like when it rains in the desert And suddenly there is a meadow full of flowers. Those plants were already there as dormant roots. There are many other examples such as fire dependent plants that remain dormant until right after a fire etc.
Can it be to hot to spray roundup?
Yes it can be. To get the best results when using Roundup you will want the temperatures to be between 65-85 degrees. Roundup will not work with temperatures above 85 degrees because the plants start to go dormant, and when the plants go dormant, they will not absorb the chemical.
What observations in 7 days is between plant in sunlight and in dark?
After seven days of observation, plants growing in darkness become weak and almost die. Those growing in light become longer, stronger and healthier. The light helps in photosynthesis, a process that produces food for the plants.
