Propagation Processing/Propagule Characteristics:

Pre-Planting Propagule Treatments:
Seeds were sown into cone-tainers filled with Sunshine # 1 (a soil-less peat-based media) amended with micro-nutrients (Micromax) and a slow-release fertilizer (Osmocote 14-14-14.)

Growing Area Preparation / Annual Practices for Perennial Crops:
Seeds were placed in plastic germination boxes on moistened germination paper and stored in a growth chamber set at 8 degrees celcius days and 4 degrees celcius nights with 8 hours of light for 45 and 90 days each. One "control" box of seeds was left in a greenhouse set at fall temperatures (16 degrees celcius days/10 degrees celcius nights.)
