Fluid drilling (Gel Seeding) for wildland plantings: Some Preliminary Studies
Fluid drilling and the associated technique for cold storage of stratified seed were evaluated for their potential in establishing woody plants on range, mined, and forest land. Significantly more seedlings resulted from fluid drilling in spring than from drilling dry seed in fall or spring. Fluid drilling is recommended for further research to develop it as a cultural method for wildlands.
