dc.description.abstractA nursery experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of different growth media and watering regimes on the early growth performance of Treculia africana seedlings. The experiment involved two factors which include three (3) growth media and three (3) watering regimes. Seven hundred and two (702) seeds were laid in a 3 x 3 factorial experiment with 9 replicates.. There were significant variations among the growth media and watering regimes. The top soil recorded the highest growth, followed by the sawdust while the river sand had lowest growth indices.. Similarly, the seedlings that were watered twice daily recorded the highest growth while the seedlings that were watered once daily and once in two days interval showed no clear distinction in their growth performance, that is, the seedlings had equal growth development. It was concluded that the topsoil medium was the best for the raising of healthy Treculia africana seedlings.
