Growth Response of Eastern Cottonwood to Nutrients in Sand Culture

Informally Refereed

Abstract

In a greenhouse test, seedlings grew best when nutrient solutions contained 100 p.p.m. N, 75 p.p.m. P , and 100 p.p.m. K. The foliage from the largest seedlings contained 3.5 to 4.5 percent N, 0.5 to 0.7 percent P, and 3.0 to 4.0 percent K.
