Conteúdo: 	In Venezuela, the Tahiti lime production usually concentrates between May and October. However, the international market of lime fruits presents higher demands and prices from November to February. For this reason, new methods of chemical control, aimed at promoting off-season fruiting, were tested. The study was conducted in Venezuela, in an orchard at 180 m of altitude. Six levels (0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 and 3.0%) of hydrogen cyanamide were sprayed on isolated terminal twigs of 3-year-old plants growing under field conditions. The number of vegetative, generative (flowering shoots without leaves), mixed (flowering shoots with leaves) and floral (generative + mixed) shoots and the flower number per twig were determined in order to assess the floral and vegetative activity, shoot flux density, and degree of defoliation.
