Quick test vs. standard germination test
Three "quick tests" were compared with standard germination tests on lots of Douglas fir, Pinus species, Abies species, spruce and bitterbrush. All three tests, when properly performed and evaluated, can predict viability which correlates with the standard germination tests on the same sample, except in Abies species. All "quick tests" indicate higher viability on Abies than was obtained by the standard germination test.
