Abstract
|
|
|
|
Various coating materials for tomato and pepper seeds were evaluated, along with potential value of coating the primed seeds and incorporating nutritional substances for early emergence in the field. For both tomato and pepper, most effective hydrophilic polymer was 1.0% hydroxyethyl cellulose and 1.0% carboxymethyl cellulose. Calcium carbonate was a better solid material than talc powder alone or combined with calcium carbonate. Priming tomato and pepper seeds prior to coating resulted in a high percent germination and early emergence of the seedlings. Incorporating the full-strength Hoagland solution and double-strength MS medium into the coating process for tomato and pepper seeds respectively increased seedling growth.
