Warren and Bilderback 2002. Timing of low pressure irrigation affects plant growth and water utilization efficiency.
Early work that shows using three cyclic irrigation volumes to apply the total irrigation volume in the afternoon can lower substrate temperature and increase growth compared to doing the same thing watering before 0700 or 1200. SL Warren and TE Bilderback J. Environ. Hort. 20(3):184–188 (2002).
