tillage ( Buhler et al., 1994 ), organic farmers primarily rely on cultivation and need more alternatives for improving weed management. Reduced-till systems can be particularly challenging for direct-seeded root crops, such as beets ( Beta vulgaris L

et al. (p. 696) investigated the impact of CGM applications on direct-seeded squash plant survival and yields. Although broadcast applications of CGM applications significantly reduced crop safety and yields, banded applications (CGM placed between

lettuce transplants instead of direct seeding ( van Bruggen and Rubatzky, 1992 ), but these practices may not be economically feasible for the Salinas Valley, the major lettuce production area in California ( Patterson et al., 1986 ). The use of cultivars
