Influence of Styroblock Container Size on Field Performance of Douglas-fir, Western Hemlock, and Sitka Spruce

Several Pacific Northwest conifers were grown in BC/CFS Styroblocks of 2- and 8-cubic-inch capacity and then outplanted in coastal British Columbia. The Styroblock-8 seedlings survived no better than the Styroblock-2 seedlings. However, the taller Styroblock-8 seedlings grew faster over the 5-year test period.
