Abstract

Reliability and cost of different types of planting stock under various climatic and site conditions are important. We tested three types of planting stock for survival and growth: bare-root seedlings, nuts, and container stock of black walnut. In this study, in which we had good soil fertility, weed control, and moisture, we found no difference in the success between the three types of plantings. If seed predation problems may exist, using bare-root, dormant seedlings in the spring for establishing typical forestry plantings is encouraged; otherwise seeds may be used if in an open field site.
