dc.description.abstractStudies on the growth and yield performance, of West Coast Tall seedlings germinated during different months (August to October) on the West Coast of India have indicated that 1) there was very little difference in the rate of leaf production from the time of germination in the nursery in the seedlings germinated during August to October 2): there was not much difference in the rate of leaf production per year during a period of ten years after transplanting in the field in the seedlings germinated during August and September. But October germinated seedlings recorded a high rate of leaf production only during fifth' to seventh year after transplanting and afterwards the rate of leaf production was similar to those in the other two groups. The total number of leaves produced from the time of germination was more in October germinated seedlings than in the other two groups 3) the time of germination had no influence on the height of the seedlings, attained during a period of 26 years after transplanting and 4) there was no significant difference in the mean yield of nuts of the seedlings in the three groups. But the cumulative yield per palm was more in September and October germinated seedlings than in August germinated ones. It is evident from these studies that if the seedlings are measured for their growth characters from the time of germination to a particular period, there may not be much difference between them, whether they germinate early or late and their mean yield difference may not be significant. Hence early germination cannot be considered as an important criterion for selection or seedlings.en_US
