[157]

Summary up to 13h + 19h

9+5 = 14 quite vertical but this includes 4 retried

3 bowed to light but [illeg]-holes in paint or imperfect places.

6 very slightly bowed, some hardly perceptibly, & of these 2 had pipes too short

I must omit taller

In every case the flexure applies only to basal part.

In the trial on the 18th with young Hypocotyls alone all succeeded except one very imperfectly painted.

I must try some more young ones upper part, & basal part (latter must be tested with unpainted skin) & some more with unpainted circles & stripes.
