Priming Black Spruce Seeds Accelerates Container Stocking in Techniculture Single-Seed Sowing System

Black spruce (Picea mariana (Mill.) B.S.P.) seedling emergence and container stocking in Techniculture containers was accelerated by about 1 week by priming seeds in aerated water for up to 6 days. Priming in polyethylene glycol 8000 was less effective than priming in aerated water, and priming in a salt mixture killed the seeds. Tree Planters' Notes 43(1):11-13; 1992.
