SEEDLING QUALITY — SOIL FERTILITY RELATIONSHIPS OF WHITE SPRUCE, AND RED AND WHITE PINE IN NURSERIES

Alexander Dickson, Albert L. Leaf, John F. Hosner

Abstract

An index based on combined morphological features of seedlings was used to relate seedling quality to different levels of nursery soil fertility as determined by soil and seedling analyses. Nutrient content on a per seedling basis was closely related to seedling quality.
