A hand-pushed ‘V’ belt seeder was used to plant 100 seeds in each treatment row at the Fruit and Vegetable Research Farm near Geneva, NY on 23 Jun. A 2-4-inch band of meat and bone meal was placed over each row to increase seed maggot oviposition. Each treatment consisted of single row treatments (25 ft), 3 ft apart in a randomized complete block design with 4 replications. All treatments were slurry treated. Pro-gro was included in all treatments for the control of seed rots.
