A comparison of three methods of black walnut plantation establishment

In 1970 a field trial was initiated in eastern Iowa to compare the survival and growth of black walnut (Juglans nigra L.) using three planting methods: (1) tubelings (seedlings grown in soil-filled paper tubes); (2) 1-0 nursery stock; and (3) direct. seeded nuts. Plantings were set out on two old-field sites on two dates; final measurements were made in 1972 after the third growing season in the field.
