Fig. 1).\u00a0 First position refers to the fruiting site that is closest to the mainstem on the fruiting branch, with node referring to the point where a fruiting branch connects to the mainstem (Figure 2).\u00a0 In general, when the cotton plant is cutout, it has reached its capacity for supporting fruiting positions and will likely not development any further fruiting sites that will result in harvestable bolls in addition to the fruiting sites already present (the squares that have already formed on fruiting branches above the uppermost white flower).\u00a0 In other words, at cutout there may be up to of 7 or more fruiting sites (squares) in addition to the uppermost white flower and these can develop into harvestable bolls as long as adequate water and heat are available.\u00a0 However, there will be no development of additional fruiting sites that will result in harvestable bolls beyond what is present on the plant at the time of cutout.\u00a0 Eventually the white flower will reach the terminal signaling the end of the flowering period.\u00a0 At this point the crop is \u201cblooming out the top\u201d and white flowers are present at the very top of the plant (NAWF 1 or 0; Fig. 3).\u00a0 When cotton has reached this stage, there are no further nodes available to support fruiting sites and the plant is solely focused on developing and maturing the bolls and few remaining flowers into harvestable bolls.<\/p>\n<p>What does cutout mean from the plant\u2019s perspective?\u00a0 The plant is supporting a developing fruit load and is supplying the squares, blooms, and bolls with the resources needed to develop a mature, harvestable boll.\u00a0 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cotton.org\/tech\/physiology\/cpt\/plantphysiology\/upload\/CPT-v10No2-99-REPOP.pdf\">Although the demand for water will start declining after peak bloom and as bolls mature<\/a>, the plant will still require enough water to avoid stress, as well as heat units, to ensure the full maturation of all the fruiting sites.\u00a0 Even though the crop is finished developing fruiting sites, proper management of both the crop and inputs is still necessary to optimize yield.\u00a0 In cases where the water supply is adequate, or if a fruiting gap (due to aborted squares or bolls lower on the plant) exists, the crop can stay at 5 NAWF for an extended period of time before the white flower reaches the terminal.\u00a0 On the other hand, we often observe cotton in the Texas High Plains begin the flowering period at or close to 5 NAWF, most often in dryland scenarios.\u00a0 In these situations, it is difficult to extend the fruiting period as the crop has likely already experienced some sort of stress.\u00a0 The flowering period will likely be abbreviated and fruit retention will be key to optimize yield in these challenging conditions.\u00a0 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cotton.org\/tech\/physiology\/cpt\/upload\/CPT-July93-v4-6.pdf\">A more detailed description of cutout and scenarios where the cutout period can be abbreviated or extended is provided by this Cotton Physiology Today article.<\/a><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1169\" style=\"width: 934px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/agrilife.org\/texasrowcrops\/files\/2017\/08\/Picture1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1169\" class=\"wp-image-1169 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/agrilife.org\/texasrowcrops\/files\/2017\/08\/Picture1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"924\" height=\"745\" srcset=\"https:\/\/agrilife.org\/texasrowcrops\/files\/2017\/08\/Picture1.jpg 924w, https:\/\/agrilife.org\/texasrowcrops\/files\/2017\/08\/Picture1-300x242.jpg 300w, https:\/\/agrilife.org\/texasrowcrops\/files\/2017\/08\/Picture1-768x619.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 924px) 100vw, 924px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1169\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Figure 1.
