ABSTRACT OF THE INVENTION The present invention discloses a method and means for selectively simulating predetermined developmental responses in plants by the positioning of a reflective surface generally between the soil surface and the leaves of the plants. The reflective surface is of a predetermined color for upwardly reflecting light of a predetermined wavelength for absorbtion by the plants, such that the upwardly reflected light of the predetermined wavelength selectively stimulates the photoreceptor systems of the plants for stimulating predetermined developmental responses. A plastic mulch having an upper surface of the predetermined color is disclosed for selectively reflecting the predetermined waveband of light upwardly to the leaves of the plants.
