Abstract

Nursery seedbed density of 3-0 green ash, which ranged from 4 to 36 trees per square foot at Carlos Avery Nursery, Forest Lake, Minn., had a marked effect on caliper, height, fresh weight, and percent and amound of plantable stock. The highest number of good-quality trees was produced at a density of 12.5 trees per square foot.
