2 Contents What is hitchhiker planting? Objectives Methods Project design Measurements Results Conclusions Further investigation
3 Hitchhiking Hitchhiking = sowing two species in one plug One plant gets a free ride Shade-tolerant white spruce (Picea glauca) coupled with showy aster ( conspicuus) or fireweed (Chamerion angustifolium) 2 for 1 planting in the field White spruce with fireweed sharetv.org/images/the_hitchhiker-show.jpg
4 Rationale Can be difficult to establish native forbs by seed Try growing forbs from roots give them a headstart Occupy physical space to inhibit invasive species Protection for shade-tolerant woody species germinated from seed root plugs
5 Objectives Specific project objectives: Evaluate morphology and biomass of tree and forbs Determine optimum container size and sowing times Broader objectives: Determine if hitchhiker planting can effectively establish two target species simultaneously from roots (in the field) Initiate growth of native species cover to create resilient forests Can we grow a quality seedling with a forb? upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b1/hit chhiker's_gesture.jpg
6 Project Design White Spruce {Control} {Control} No forb Sown with Showy Sown with No forb Plug size 412A 512A 615A 512A 615A 412A 6 wks 6 wks 6 wks 6 wks Forb sowing period (# weeks) 8 wks 10 wks 8 wks 10 wks 8 wks 10 wks 8 wks 10 wks 12 wks 12 wks 12 wks Grown from March 2014 October 2014 Different plug size root space Different sow times light competition 12 random samples from each treatment = 216 total 12 wks
7 512A 10 weeks 615A 6 weeks Control 412A
8 Biomass and Morphology Measurements Species White spruce / Metric Shoot height Root collar diameter (RCD) Height:Diameter ratio Shoot mass Root mass Root:Shoot ratio Root length Root surface area Target relative to benchmark Same or greater Same or greater Same Same or greater Same or greater Same or greater Same or greater Same or greater # of suckers No benchmark Root mass Root length Root surface area No benchmark No benchmark No benchmark *STATISTICAL NOTE* Benchmark = control w/ no forb Comparisons made using 1-way ANOVA Dunnett s test compared each treatment against control group for significance

21 Conclusions Greenhouse work only Plug size matters may be space constraints in 512A Spruce + : Sow forb 10 weeks after spruce 615A plugs show best performance for spruce Spruce + : Sow forb late (12 weeks) in 615A plug May need to try sowing fireweed even later as competition was high light competition factor It is possible to grow a quality seedling combined with a native forb
22 Further Investigation What is minimum root mass/length/sa/suckers needed for forbs to not only establish, but to expand over site? Will forbs and spruce co-exist or will one out-compete the other? What are the best species to combine? Is it reasonable to plant larger plugs? logistics and cost These questions will be assessed with our upcoming field trials stay tuned!
