The health status and growth of intensively grown beech seedlings in the first years after planting were studied on 2 research plots. Proper intensive fertilisation of the beech seedlings affected positively both the initial height and growth. Even the slow-release fertiliser did not negatively influence the beech after planting. The health status of the beech was excellent after 4 years, the average height of plants with different fertilisation treatments having become equal. In conclusion, the slow-release fertiliser in the substrate has a positive effect on the plant growth, different fertilisation variants did not cause any serious root deformations of the beech planting stock samples taken 4 years after planting.
