Cotton Planting. I have
had several calls relative
to the rate of planting cot
ton seed. Here is the
answer:
Put your planters on
hard ground where the
seed can be found and
counted. Drive the plant
ers at the same speed as
when planting in the field.
After seed are dropped
mark off a 10-foot space
and count the seed.
If the seed germination is
90 per cent or better, you
should have 60 to 80 seed

in the 10-foot space. If
the seed germination is be
tween 80 and 90 per cent,
you should have 80 to 100
seed in the 10-foot space.
If seed germination is be
low 80 per cent, increase
the seeding rate according
ly.
At the best, all seed will
