AB Plasticulture techniques were used for establishment and seed production of native wetland species, primarily of the genus Carex (L. [Cyperaceae]). Although plasticulture is commonly used for vegetable, cut flower, melon, and berry production, it is not widely used for native seed production. This article summarizes initial experiences in setting up this system for seed increase of several native Carex species during the establishment year.
