Abstract

SummarySeedling emergence and plant growth from primed or 100% germinated seeds that were fluid drilled were compared with those from primed or untreated seeds sown dry over three sowing dates in the field. Seedlings from treated seeds emerged more rapidly than those from untreated seeds but seed treatments had no effect on emergence synchrony or percentage. Seedling fresh weights were affected little by seed treatments. Only from the third sowing were root fresh weights greater from fluid-drilled seeds than from dry-sown seeds. Under glasshouse conditions, seeds given a hydration treatment (one-day water soak at 20°C followed by three-day incubation in fluid drilling gel at 20°C) generally emerged more rapidly and gave greater seedling fresh weights than primed seeds when seeds of both treatments were fluid-drilled. Incorporation of 15 gof 9N-19.8P-12.5 K fertilizer per litre of fluid drilling gel increased shoot fresh weight compared with untreated, primed or hydrated seeds under glasshouse conditions. When these same treatments were applied under field conditions, 15 g of 9N-19.8P-12.5 K fertilizer per litre of gel increased economic root fresh weight but the seed treatments had little effect.
