Abstract
A method utilizing small, bouyant particles in a floating mat for the hydroponic germination and growth of small plants is described. The bouyant mat supports the seeds and small plants on the culture solution surface and allows easy, non-destructive removal of the plants analysis and re-insertion. This method was used successfully to germinate and grow seedlings of bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.)
