White Pine Survival and Growth Similar, Regardless of Planting Depths and Methods, in Ontario Tests
This report indicates a uniformity of survival and height growth for eastern white pine (Pinus strobus L.), 10 years after hand planting of forest tree nursery stock was done during 1948-51 on abandoned farmland. Four methods (wedge, slit, cone, and T) and five depths of planting (- 2, -1, 0, +1, and +2 inches) were used. No consistent or significant effect) of method or depth of planting were found, confirming the work of Carvel and Kulow (2) and of Men and Funk (7).
