Spanish term or phrase: tuvo los efectos de un raleo.
Raleo, en este caso significa la eliminación selectiva de las flores, con el propósito de proteger la planta y permitir que el tiempo de cosecha sea más extendido. Aquí va el contexto:

En cuanto a los tratamientos, la cosecha de los frutos de T1S se realizó el 22 de febrero, lo que significó un retraso en la cosecha de 38 días. En cambio, en la zona de riego, la cosecha de temporada (T0R) fue el 9 de enero. Con T1R, la misma se extendió hasta el 4 de abril, lo que implica un retraso de 85 días. En cuanto a T2S no se produjo un retraso en la cosecha, sino que tuvo los efectos de un raleo.

had a thinning effect
Explanation:
Agriculture
In agriculture and gardening, thinning is the selective removal of flowers, fruits, shoots, and seedlings or young plants to allow adequate space for the remaining organs/plants to grow efficiently. In large-scale farming, techniques like precision seeding and transplanting can eliminate the need for thinning by starting plants at their optimum spacing. On a smaller scale, such as a home vegetable garden, thinning can be used as a way to make maximum use of space for certain crops. For example, beets, carrots, green onions and others can be planted densely, and then thinned to make room for continued growth of the plants left in the soil, and also as a harvest of baby vegetables (beet greens, baby carrots, baby onions).
