Please explain...<br />
What’s a plug seedling?<br />
When someone refers to a plug seedling,<br />
they are referring to a tree grown in a small<br />
container (2 – 5 cubic inches) usually for one<br />
growing season, inside a greenhouse. Seedling<br />
height ranges from 3 to 12 inches.<br />
What’s a bareroot?<br />
This stock has been grown in an outdoor<br />
nursery and packed without soil on the roots.<br />
This stock can be either 1, 2 or 3 years old.<br />
Seedlings are generally classified by age in<br />
the seed bed and age in the transplant bed.<br />
Seedling height ranges from 6 to 20 inches.<br />
What’s a transplant?<br />
Transplants are trees that were grown for<br />
1 or 2 years in a seed bed and then<br />
transplanted at a wider spacing into a<br />
transplant bed. This would include a Plug+1<br />
(grown first year in a greenhouse), 1+1 or a<br />
2+1. Transplants generally have a root system<br />
made up of more fine roots and will typically<br />
exhibit better first year growth and survival<br />
than a bareroot. Seedling height ranges from<br />
6 to 30 inches.<br />
Nursery stock type nomenclature<br />
1+0 1 year seed bed<br />
2+0 2 year seed bed<br />
1+1 1 year seed bed + 1 year transplant bed<br />
2+1 2 year seed bed + 1 year transplant bed<br />
P+1 1 year plug + 1 year transplant bed<br />
Plug 1 year old, container<br />
Planting Sites<br />
Shady areas? If you’re looking for a tree to<br />
plant in an area that doesn’t get much sun, try<br />
a Western hemlock or a Grand fir. Cedar would<br />
be another option.<br />
Wet areas? For those wet areas that may have<br />
some standing water or poor drainage, try<br />
Grand fir or Lodgepole pine.<br />
