FORCING

Forcing is a method of cultivation by which plants, flowers, and fruits are raised at an earlier season than the natural one by protecting them under glass, in hot or cold frames, by using stimulating fertilizers, and other means. Forcing is not a new invention, it has been used since at least 1900.
