Juvenile performance of slash pine progenies in row, block, and Nelder's plots was compared. Progeny x planting density and progeny x competition level interactions were minimal in individual tests. Correlations of progeny performance across tests were positive but generally non-significant. The feasibility of close spacing, short-term assessments of progenies is uncertain
