Extract

In 1949, Bruns and Rasmussen initiated studies to determine the length of time certain weed seeds would maintain viability when held in fresh running water. Seeds of white top, Russian knapweed, Canada thistle, morning glory, and poverty weed were placed in Lumite screen bags and submersed at 12- and 48-inch depths in the Prosser Power Canal.
