This investigation was performed to determining the most suitable planting density and date of maple seeding the nursery. This experiment was carried out in split-plot design with two factors of seedling density in four level (21, 29,36 and 43gram seeds in unite area) and planting time in ten level (Nov. 20, Des.5, Des.20, Jan. 4, Jan. 19, Feb. 3, Feb. 18, Mars 5 and Mars 15) in four replications in Vanamak nursery of Neka-Choob company in Mazandaran province. After leaf falling and before transfer of seedlings, quality and quantity factors of seedlings such as seedling quality, diameter, total height, number of seedling and number of transferable seedling were evaluated and analyzed. Results showed that there were significant differences among treatments. Seedling density affected on number of seedling and seedling height but did not affect on collar diameter. Time of planting was effective on measured parameters. On the base of results seeding density of 29 gram and planting times of December was suggested for nursery condition.
