Cone Storage and Seed Quality in Eastern White Pine (Pinus strobus L.)

To achieve maximum seed extraction and germination from stored, immature cones of eastern white pine (Pinus strobus L.) the cones should be stored for about 1 week, or until cone moisture drops below 50 percent. Indoor and outdoor storage in burlap bags yielded similar results. Tree Planters' Notes 37(4):3-6; 1986.
