Abstract

The seeds of three grass species non-coated or coated by the polymer Extender® were sown in Prague in 2004 and 2005 in three dates (December, February-March, April). The aim was to compare the effect of dormant or frost seeding and the seed coating on the plant surviving and development. The plants were significantly higher in average by 15.5-278% from December time of sowing by 18-257% from February/March in comparison with the swards sown in April. Number of leaves was higher by 93-528% and by 7-655%; number of tillers was higher by 13-284% and by 21-392% from December and from February/March time of sowing respectively. The effect of seed coating by Extender® was not statistically proved in this experiment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
