In two years, three plant establishment procedures were compared at five different sowing dates in sugar beet and direct-sown onion. The plant establishment procedures were 1) normal sowing and mechanical control of weeds in the stale seedbed (N), 2) N + pre-emergence flame weeding (N+F), and 3) punch planting and flame weeding to control weeds in the seedbed and prior to crop emergence (P +F).
