Abstract
AbstractThe effects of site preparation and other cultural treatments on the biomass of 1‐ and 2‐year‐old loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) seedlings were examined. Treatments included various combinations of disking, applying herbicides, fertilizing, subsoiling, fumigating the soil, irrigating, and mowing. Oven‐dry weights of stems, needles, roots, and branches were determined. Root collar diameter was significantly affected by treatment after both 1 and 2 growing seasons and was as effective an indicator of treatment response as other variables singly or in combination.
