Effects of Lift Date, Storage, and Family on Early Survival and Root Growth Potential of Shortleaf Pine (1987)Hallgren, S., & Tauer, C. G. (1987). Effects of Lift Date, Storage, and Family on Early Survival and Root Growth Potential of Shortleaf Pine. Proceedings, Intermountain Forest Nursery Association; 1987 August 10-14; Oklahoma City, OK. General Technical Report RM-151. Fort Collins, CO: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Forest and Range Experiment Station: 87-92. Retrieved from https://rngr.net/publications/proceedings/1987/hallgren2.pdf/?searchterm=None High survival and RGP can be expected for seedlings planted from December through February even when a severe spring drought occurs. Seedling performance is only slightly reduced by storage, is positively related to number of primary lateral roots, negatively related to presence of secondary needles, and not related to the presence of a terminal bud https://rngr.net/publications/proceedings/1987/hallgren2.pdf/?searchterm=None
