Container Stock Specifications for Northern Ontario

The size of containerized seedling currently produced for use in northern Ontario generally confines container planting to the easier site conditions with a minimum of competing vegetation. Studies initiated in 1978 compare the performance of various sizes and grades of paperpot and bare-root planting stock over a range of sites, and attempt to define desirable container stock specifications for a broader range of site conditions. Third-year growth data from the first plantings of black spruce (Picea mariana [Mill.] B.S.P.)and jack pine (Pinus banksiana Lamb.) are presented and discussed.
