Abstract

Abstract Fluid drilling was compared with dry seeding and transplanting for stand establishment and effects on crop yields in spring and fall crops of broccoli [ Brassica oleracea L. (Italica Group)]. Two cultivars, at least two seeding dates, and one transplanting date were used in each experiment. Fluid drilling and dry seeding produced the desired post-thinning stand with March seeding dates. Yields were variable for spring crops due to interactions with planting date. Fluid drilling usually was inferior to dry seeding for stand establishment with August seeding dates. Thus, fluid drilling was not superior to dry seeding or transplanting for earliness and uniformity of harvest and total marketable yields in fall broccoli crops. With timely planting, dry seeding or transplanting could be used for successful stand establishment and satisfactory yields of spring and fall broccoli crops. Fluid drilling did not seem advantageous, especially for fall crops. Cultivar and planting date effects often were more important than effects of stand establishment methods in these studies.
