Does 1 ramet = 1 plant?
• Sprouting study
• 5 substrates (100% sand – 100% organic) all 2 g/L
• 5 depths (surface, half-buried, covered, 2 cm under, 4 cm under)
• 8 reps
• Single ramet
• Checked 3x per week for sprouting/ topping out
![Page 16: Rotala rotundifolia: south Florida’s next big bad wolf Wednesday PM Session C...Crested floatingheart Sam Sardes, M.S. student and Lyn Gettys, PhD – University of Florida FLREC](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011809/5cf0ed8b88c9932f2d8bd642/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Sprouting study – results
• Substrate: no effect
• Burial depth: big effect
![Page 17: Rotala rotundifolia: south Florida’s next big bad wolf Wednesday PM Session C...Crested floatingheart Sam Sardes, M.S. student and Lyn Gettys, PhD – University of Florida FLREC](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011809/5cf0ed8b88c9932f2d8bd642/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Sprouting study – results
• So…
• Covered with 2+ cm: no problem!!!
• Not covered: problem :-/
• On surface: 51% sprout
• Half-buried: 59% sprout
• Barely covered: 20% sprout
• ~40% of uncovered ramets will sprout…

Sprouting study – results
• Recall: 0 g/L fertilizer
• 1 plant 1,024 ramets
• 40% of 1,024 = “only” 410 plants from 1
• Recall: 4 g/L fertilizer
• 1 plant 205,573 ramets
• 40% of 205,573 = 82,229 plants from 1
82,229 plants from 1 !

Yikes… now what?!?!?
• Control methods
• Prevention
• EDRR
• Cultural: cover ‘em up???
• Mechanical: too fragile
• Chemical… previous research

Willey submersed & foliar trials (2012)
• Submersed
• Diquat
• Amine salt of endothall
• Foliar
• Imazamox
• Imazapyr
• Interesting foliar:
• Penoxsulam: no DW reduction; major root damage
