Visit Park Seed’s Premier Trial Gardens Be sure to visit our trial gardens this year, including our Rose Garden! And, as usual, we have extensive flower and vegetable trials, including the newest experimental breeding and the standard industry favorites. We also have the new All-America Selections winners available for viewing in our official AAS trial grounds. We are trialing many varieties this year, all hand-planted and tended by our employees in a 10-acre garden. The quality and accuracy of our catalogs and growing instructions depend on extensive trials. We invite you to take advantage of these trials; they are open for self-guided tours from dawn to dusk 7 days a week. We suggest you visit during the month of June to see the trials at their peak. We hope to see you here!

Cover lightly with vermiculite. Indirect or fluorescent lights aid germination, but do not expose to direct sun. Uniform moisture and 75º-78º F soil temperatures are vital — use a germination chamber, provide mist or cover flats with a clear cover to maintain moisture. After germination, reduce moisture and grow on at 62º-68º F. Water and fertilize sparingly to prevent stretching and encourage early flowering. Transplant 3 to 4 weeks after sowing, when plants are ½-inch tall. For Impatiens Crop Time Chart, see page 10.

Bud set in most African Marigolds is responsive to short day-length. To sell in flower, grow under natural day-lengths. (It is necessary to sow seed in early February.) Seed sown after February 15 should be shaded for two weeks after sowing, thus reducing day-length to 9 hours. Grow on at 65°. After the first or second set of true leaves appear, apply B-9 in .5% solution; repeat one week later. For African Marigold Crop Time Chart, see page 11.

PANSY COOL D 65º-75° 12 days (Viola x wittrockiana.) Significant breeding improvements in Pansies have produced hybrids that bloom longer, show better heat resistance and cold tolerance, and display a wonderful selection of bloom colors and patterns. New varieties show improved spring performance, too, withstanding both the unseasonably cold spring weather and the early warmth of summer. Grow for early fall or early spring sales. Cover seed, as darkness is necessary for germination. Grow on cool — not over 50°F (45°F is best, costing less and producing stockier, fuller and stronger plants). When growing pansies in your greenhouse, keep the pH below 6.0 for optimum results. Also, research has shown that fertilizing with a formula providing high minors will produce higher quality plants. For Pansy Crop Time Chart, see page 11.

SALVIA splendens WARM L 75º-78° 6-10 days Salvia performs best in full sun in the north, part shade in the south. Germination is aided by light — do not cover seed with soil (a light covering of vermiculite can be used to help maintain moisture). Transplant at 2 true-leaf stage and grow on at 55º-60°F. Salvia is very sensitive to methyl bromide-treated soil and to high salt levels. For stocky plants and best foliage color grow a bit dry or treat with B-9 2 to 3 weeks after transplanting, and fertilize lightly. For Salvia Crop Time Chart, see page 11.

A splendid everblooming annual for beds and pots in summer. Showy, durable flowers are abundantly produced, even in hot dry conditions. Highly recommended for low-maintenance landscaping, including industrial and municipal grounds. Stays neat right up to frost. Cover seeds lightly with medium and put flats in a dark place until germination occurs. Watch carefully; as soon as germination occurs, move to light and provide good air circulation. Allow surface of medium to dry out between waterings. Vinca is very sensitive to overwatering and cold temperatures. Grow on warm (at least 60°F). Use a constant feeding program of 150 ppm of 15-16-17 fertilizer, or 200-250 ppm if applied weekly. For Vinca Crop Time Chart, see page 11. FIRST KISS. A top performer in our trials! This series boasts a complete range of colors including several unique shades! Early, 2-inch flowers with overlapping petals appear all summer on 10- to 14-inch mounded plants with nice basal branching. High quality seed results in plants with rapid, uniform development. Blooms in 10 to 12 weeks in packs. ALL AMERICA

This hardiness map was developed by the Agricultural Research Service of the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture. The hardiness zones 2-11 are based on the average minimum temperatures for each zone. The smaller number indicates the northern-most zone in which plants can be expected to survive the winter — the larger number, the southern-most zone in which they may be expected to thrive. Many factors, such as altitude, snow cover, exposure, moisture, soil type, etc. can create variations within zones, but adhering to your specific zone will generally give the best results.

Among the finest of cutting perennials. The Delphinium “bee” is a contrasting dark or light center. Sow in January. Two weeks’ stratification at 35°F, then dropping night temps by 10°F, improves germination. Also can be sown outside in August and protected over winter to sell in pots in early spring.

Perennials

PLATYCODON grandiflorus, Balloon Flower Z 4-9 L 68°-70° 7-14 days Sow seeds directly into plug trays, since it dislikes being transplanted. Light is needed for good germination; however, a very light covering of vermiculite helps prevent drying out. Transplant into 4-inch pots 5 weeks after sowing and maintain a constant feed program at 200-300ppm. Regulate height by pinching 2 weeks after potting or applying B-9 at 1000ppm weekly until the first flower appears. Needs good air circulation and high light intensity for maximum growth results. Do not allow plants to dry out, as this will cause yellowing. Platycodons thrive in full sun, but will tolerate light shade. Sow in December or January to sell green in 4-inch pots in April/May or sow in February for late May or June sales. Plants transplanted into the garden by May will begin blooming late June and July.

Built into each pot is a water reservoir shaped like an inverted saucer with a single, central drainage hole. The soil drains more effectively, you water less frequently, and the plants beneath your basket don’t get splattered with runoff from multiple drainage holes every time you water! These baskets have a classic textured clay appearance that adds great curb appeal! For Panterra containers and color bowls, please see page 130 & 131. Available in: Clay.

Designed for the wholesale market, this packaging innovation will save you hours of labor. Sheet-load ten 4¼-inch square by 4¾-inch deep pots into a tray at one time. Pots easily separate to sell individually, but are ideally marketed as a whole in their 10-count tray. Use the “invisible” slot in each pot to place a locking tag along the outside of the tray. No more dropped or “hidden” tags! 50 sheets per case (500 pots). (Each tray holds one sheet of above pots, 50 trays per case) Catalog No. 6695.CS.SP 6696.CS.SP 6697.CS.SP

JIFFY POTS

JI PEAT PELLETS

JIFFY PEAT® CONTAINERS Excellent for veggies! Totally organic! The unique property of Jiffy-Pots® is the ease with which plant roots grow right through the pot walls, permitting replanting without removing the pot. No shock or setback is suffered, so faster, heavier growth takes place. The results: better plants, earlier crops, heavier yields and shorter production time.

JIFFY-7® PELLETS. Jiffy-7® Pellets are 1/4-inch tall disks of compressed peat surrounded by netting. When soaked in water they expand up to 7 times their height. DIRECT SOWING OF SEED. Grow plants in one step by sowing seed directly into Jiffy-7®’s. All you add is water. No need for filling pots, transplanting seedlings, or sterilizing soil.

JIFFY-POTS.® Inexpensive and completely biodegradable. Once soaked, they need less watering and allow excellent root aeration. Molded from a mixture of 75% sphagnum peat moss and 25% virgin wood fiber. Jiffy-Pots® and Jiffy-Strips® weigh 30-35 lbs. per case. Catalog No.

PLANTING. The netting holds the pellet firmly together so handling is easy and root balls stay intact, but allow roots to grow through. Plant into garden, pots, field or greenhouse.

SEED STARTING

SPECIAL HOW-TO-SECTION

Proper Environment — The Secret To Successful Germination —

Provided you are using high-quality seed that has been properly stored, germination should be easy! There are only 3 critical factors in getting the best germination yield from your seed: • Temperature • Moisture • Light First, let’s talk about temperature. Soil temperature is more important than air temperature, both for germinating seed and rooting cuttings. That’s good news: it means you don’t have to keep your entire greenhouse or growing area at a certain temperature — only the soil in which your seeds are sprouting. Use a soil thermometer like the terrific one offered on page 158 to ensure that soil temperature is being maintained. And to reach the optimal temperature, consider the heating equipment on page 146. Why is soil temperature so critical? Improper temperature can delay germination, hinder nutrient uptake, and increase ammonium toxicity. Protect your investment with the efficient, economical heating devices described on page 146. Providing the proper environment for seed germination and growing on is vital to the success of the grower’s operation. To help our fellow growers make the most of their investments, we have listed our best recommendations, based on our own years of research as well as on the following helpful reference guide: 96007.EA.SP—PARK’S SUCCESS WITH SEED. Everything you need to know to germinate, grow on, and transplant flowering plants and vegetables from seed! (not pictured).

1 for $24.95; 2-4 for $22.95 each; 5-24 for $20.95 each; 25 or more $18.95 each

Start with the Seed Seed represents only about 5% of the total cost to produce a finished bedding flat, yet old or improperly stored seed may give you inconsistent results that cost weeks of time and labor. Therefore, it is very important to use high-quality seed from a reputable source. When your seed arrives, store it in a refrigerator set at approximately 41°F. If your seed is not stored at the proper temperature and humidity, it can lose a high percentage of it’s germination ability before you even sow it. Do not leave seed at room temperature, even for short periods of time. Know the Basics for Success in Seed Germination Media — Monitor and maintain proper pH levels. Nutrient availability is best between 5.5 and 6.5. Since the media volume in a plug cell is so small, it is critical that the media be of consistent size and pH to ensure germination in all cells, as well as ensuring rooting all the way to the bottom of the cells. Fafard Superfine Plug Mix (SFPM) and Premier Pro Mix PGX are scientifically formulated specifically for germinating seeds, flowing evenly into these small cavities. Seeding — The seed cost may be a small cost compared to the labor of getting the seed into each cell. You can use the Vibro Motor Hand Seeder to individually sow one seed at a time, allowing tremendous flexibility (sowing different colors by row). A much faster system is the Gro Mor Wand Seeder, which quickly sows one row at a time and yet retains the flexibility to sow different colors by row. This system is remarkably simple and compact, yet gives you much more control than most seeders. Typical time to seed Cabbage into a 406 tray is less than 5 minutes!

SEED TRAYS

The plug tray you use may depend on your greenhouse system, but usually it is sufficient for one or possibly two sizes. If you are relatively new to the business, you may have best success with a larger cell-cavity plug tray. The 200 size holds more soil, requiring less frequent watering and yielding a larger finished plug. The 288 plug tray is one of the most popular sizes in the industry right now. It produces a good size plug to transplant and yields more plugs per square foot of greenhouse space. The 20-Row Seed Tray is used in place of open-flat sowing, and can be sown by hand or with the Vibro Motor Hand Seeder or the Gro Mor Wand Seeder. PARK’S HEAVY DUTY SEED STARTER TRAY 20-row trays are designed for manual or mechanical sowing. Trays use less soil and are easier to transplant from than an open flat or bed. Rows allow for proper spacing and help reduce the spread of dampingoff diseases. Stronger, rigid tray with a rim for extra support. Requires no undertray. Weight per case of 50 is 15 lbs. 6785.CS.SP—$69.50/case of 50

SUPPLEMENTAL LIGHTING Some seeds require light to germinate, but many do not. For those varieties that require light (check the culture line of the seed items listed in this catalog), you will want to extend the day-length hours in the winter to provide a total of 16 to 18 hours of available light. This can be done using a system such as the 6859.EA.SP or 6860.EA.SP Park Seed Boosters. Use an Automatic Timer 6034.EA.SP to time your desired hours, and keep an eye on the flats for early seedling emergence. Use a light meter to accurately measure available light. The human eye quickly adapts to various light levels, and thus can deceive you into thinking you have more light than is truly available. Once seedlings emerge, the light levels are critical to prevent stretching and to produce stronger seedlings. Using your light meter to determine the best location, move your newly sprouted plugs to the most ideal location in your greenhouse. Correct light levels, moisture management, air movement, and fertility produce strong plugs. HAF circulating fans keep air moving, reducing disease, distributing the heat throughout the greenhouse and helping to “tone” the plugs. Fertility is important as soon as seedlings emerge and is easy to maintain with Masterblend’s 13-2-13 Plug Formula with Calcium and Magnesium and 95% of its Nitrogen in Nitrate form. It performs well for all plug varieties. See page 150. PRO-GROW “SPACE SAVING” PROPAGATING CHAMBERS Rapid, dependable, controllable seed germination in minimal space! Pro-Grow chamber frame is made of heavy-duty welded steel, and doors of heavy plexiglass for light penetration with a stainless-steel interior, including sturdy, removable shelves holding 22, 46, or 70 1020 flats. Removable hollow-core panels with convenient storage racks allow access to both sides, yet still retain heat, humidity, and exposure to light. Stainless-steel water pan, heated by a special low-density heater, increases the heat and humidity for faster germination. ProGrow thermostat accurately controls the heat. The unit conveniently rolls on heavy-duty swivel casters with locking brakes, and it’s durable and attractive. Shipped assembled on skids; the only assembly required is attaching the casters and thermostat. F.O.B. Wisconsin. Catalog No.

MOISTURE MANAGEMENT Different seeds have different moisture requirements during early germination. Like Park Seed Research, many growers have used “sweat chambers” for years to ensure consistent humidity during this crucial period of germination. You can build your own “sweat chamber” out of pressure-treated wood or metal and greenhouse film, or out of insulation sheets covered with foil on one side. However, it’s critical to control temperature — clear poly “sweat tents” can get extremely hot in the sun, and are prone to cool down at night. A professional alternative to homemade sweat chambers is a Pro-Grow Propagating Chamber (below), which provides a large growth room with tremendous space savings, full functionality, and mobility. PARK’S SEED BOOSTER No need to heat a large greenhouse to germinate seeds! Park’s Seed Booster provides just the right amount of light to do it. Occupying 8 square feet of floor space, the four-tier model provides more than 24 square feet of growing space—enough for thousands of seedlings. Sturdily constructed of square, rust-proof aluminum tubing with a durable, baked-on white enamel finish, it stands 62½ inches high x 49 inches long x 23 inches wide. Each of its 4 sets of racks accommodates four 22-inch x 11-inch Permanest Trays (not included—see page 143), which act as shelves. These trays accept the Park Poly Flat or Seed Starter Trays. The upper tier is unlighted, for seeds that don’t require light. Each of the lower tiers is equipped with two fluorescent fixtures, adjustable to provide optimum light, and each holds two 40-watt cool-white tubes. Easily assembled with just a screwdriver. Simple directions included. Park’s Seed Booster. 4-tier model described above, 3 lighted tiers.

NOTE: Soilless mixes are sold by volume (in cubic feet) per bag. The weight varies with moisture content at the time of bagging. Starter nutrients are added to soilless mixes at low levels to provide for seedlings, transplants, or cuttings, but they are gone quickly. Typically it is best to begin fertilizing immediately with a soilless mix formula. Bark provides good aeration and drainage, adds bulk and has anti-fungal properties. It does, however, tie up ammonia and urea nitrogen fertilizers, so apply nitrogen primarily as nitrate nitrogen.

INFLATION ACCESSORIES BLOWER FAN It’s possible — with double covered poly housing and blower fans — to provide a buffer zone for heat retention. Blower fan is automatic, thermal-protected, to prolong the life of the motor. The adjustable air inlet should be closed only enough to pump air between the two layers of poly, maintaining a 4-inch air space. Double layering and the blower fan virtually eliminate condensation. Can be attached to a plywood base. 60 CFM. INFLATION BLOWER BRACKET KIT WITH DEFLECTOR BUSHING A terrific inflation accessory to help you get the most mileage out of your poly film. Designed to protect outer layer of poly from degrading because of blower airflow by directing air away from it. Prevents tight plastic from blocking air flow and keeps air moving. White color further discourages sunlight attraction and slows degradation. Standard positive twist lock can be used to replace old style bushing in existing blower mounting brackets. Use with Blower Fan (6914) above.
