Timing is Crucial for Plug Seedling Substrate Testing [PDF]
HortTechnology, 1997 Many plug seedling growers complain about the inadequacy of substrate testing as a measure of nutritional status because results are too variable. We conducted two experiments to test a model system of sampling substrate at a set time after fertilization. Petunias ( Petunia×hybrida Hort.
