Abstract/Contents: | "Seed harvested by the windrow method germinated the same regardless of moisture levels at harvest and was consistently superior in germination to that of direct-combined seed. Seed combined at less than 25% moisture did not heat appreciably in storage and there was no loss in germination as a result of immediate heating. Delta Kentucky bluegrass seed harvested at more than 22% moisture and Manchar smooth bromegrass seed harvested at more than 24% moisture had a lower germination when stored in bags for 2 weeks after harvest." |
