The publication Assessing Regrowth After Cotton Defoliation is used to make regrowth ratings in the various tests conducted in 2003. The 0 to 10 percent rating is noted in the tests as T0 if it is refering to the top of the plant or B0 if rating the lower portion of the plant. Regrowth that represents 10 to 30 percent of the original canopy is rated as T1 or B1. Regrowth that represents 30 to 50 percent of the original canopy is rated as T2 or B2. Regrowth that represents 50 to 70 percent of the original canopy is rated as T3 or B3.
