Excerpt from Usda Forest Service Research Paper Se: 76-114Each year throughout the South, slash pine (pinus elliottii Engelm.) seedlings are planted by the millions. Planters want stock with a high potential for survival and growth. Satisfying this demand may tax nursery resources and require that quality seedlings be raised in large number on each available foot of nursery soil.Seedling size often is used as a measure of quality. Experience has shown that large pine seedlings from a given nursery generally survive better and grow faster than smaller ones from the same nursery. The nursery man's dilemma arises because, within reason able limits, only a given amount of vegetative material can be produced in any unit area. Many small or fewer large seedlings may be raised in each nursery bed.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
